Intellij and WSL symbolic link
Answered
Hello everyone,
I switch from Ubuntu 16.04 back to windows since WSL has been released.
Currently i'm working on my project directly from windows but my project is inside the WSL.
My problem is that my project have some symbolic links used, but since i'm using intellij directly from windows, intellij doesnt recognize my symlink and just display like normal file.
Is there a way to handle that ? Maybe something like remote connection directly inside WSL ? Or something else ?
Thanks in advance for helping me !

If you can get SSH server running in WSL, https://stackoverflow.com/a/42392922/104891 may be another way, or you can use Docker: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/docker.html.
