+Run the Linux commands from WSL, not Git Bash. From the repo opened in Git Bash:
+
+```bash
+wsl
+cd /mnt/d/DEV/workspace/REPOS/git.d-popov.com/neuron-tai
+python3 -m venv .venv

+If `.venv/bin/meshnet-node` is missing, the editable install step did not finish
+successfully. Re-run the `.venv/bin/pip install -e ...` command above inside WSL.
