Not sure if this is what should have been placed here. Those are all normal NixOS things and we can just link to some upstream doc about this.

We shouldn't encourage people to run commands inside /mnt/ as it very slow. Please use a normal path like ~ in the examples.

To add packages, edit `/etc/nixos/configuration.nix` using sudo. You
can use the `nano` editor which comes installed and uses CTRL+S to save

Agreed, I think we should keep our docs to WSL specific things and point to some general NixOS guide

My 2 cents here but I also agree with the others. If we allowed this then we would need to keep it update with another documentation, why not just let the user open it by himself? Since they are using wsl2 it is assumed they can open the documentation with internet or pre-download it before.
