# Lesson 5
## Windows, WSL, & Ganache
- Per [this question](https://github.com/smartcontractkit/full-blockchain-solidity-course-js/discussions/34#discussioncomment-2846436), if you're using WSL, for the ganache UI you'll have to use a different endpoint. 

You have 4 options to fix this:
1. Use the WSL endpoint on the ganache UI (this sometimes doesn't work)
2. Use `ganache` from the command line
3. Use `ganache-cli` from the command line (not recommended)
4. Just use `hardhat` from the command line (you'll have to use hardhat at some point anyways!)

### Using the WSL Endpoint
On the Ganache UI, you can select a different hostname and connect to whatever IP you see. In the example below, you'd connect to `172.24.224.1`

### Using `ganache`

```
yarn global add ganache
ganache
```

Keep this running in it's own terminal, and use the endpoint it gives you. To kill it, press `CTRL` + `C`.

### Using `ganache-cli` from the command line.
Or, optionally, you can install `ganache-cli` [as this user did](https://github.com/smartcontractkit/full-blockchain-solidity-course-js/discussions/39#discussioncomment-2854165).

```
yarn global add ganache-cli
ganache-cli
```

Keep this running in it's own terminal, and use the endpoint it gives you. To kill it, press `CTRL` + `C`.

### Using `hardhat`

[See the discussion here](https://github.com/smartcontractkit/full-blockchain-solidity-course-js/discussions/90#discussioncomment-2871657)

```
yarn add --dev hardhat
yarn hardhat
```

Then select the `Create an empty hardhat.config.js`

Then run:

```
yarn hardhat node
```

Keep this running in it's own terminal, and use the endpoint it gives you. To kill it, press `CTRL` + `C`.
