+### Windows
+
+DDEV runs on Windows via WSL2 — install WSL2 + an Ubuntu distro, then
+follow the Linux install instructions *inside* WSL:
+<https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/stable/users/install/ddev-installation/#windows>.
+
+Keep the repo on the WSL filesystem (`~/projects/cms-plugins` inside
+Ubuntu), not under `/mnt/c/…` — Vite HMR and `npm install` are
+noticeably slower across the Windows ↔ Linux mount boundary.
