Research direction

Start with docs/dev/dev-proxy/how-to/use-dev-proxy-with-wsl.md and locate the Linux setup instructions on the Get started page. Verify how setup prerequisites are presented, then document that unzip is required and include the supplied apt commands. Done means both pages warn WSL/Linux users before the install script runs.

Feedback

When you install the latest version of Ubuntu in WSL, it does not ship with the unzip executable which the bash install script requires which results in an error

bash: line 66: unzip: command not found

We should include an admonition on the page to warn users that unzip is required. They can use the following command to install the executable:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install unzip

We should also include this admonition in the Linux setup instructions on the Get started page.
