Document using Charmcraft under WSL
Metadata
Current evaluation
Documentation task to write a guide for running Charmcraft on Windows under WSL (systemd, snapd, snapcraft). No labels or comments; still relevant since Charmcraft 4.0 dropped native Windows support and recommends WSL, but no WSL docs exist yet.
Suggested action: needs triage
Reason: The issue has no labels, no comments, and no assignee, showing no sign of categorisation or prioritisation despite being filed by a maintainer. It remains relevant because the 4.0 release notes (commit b04fae05) direct Windows users to WSL after 'feat!: drop Windows support (#2307)', yet a repo-wide search confirms no WSL how-to exists in docs/howto. It should be labelled and scheduled rather than closed, since the gap is real and the docs are actively maintained.
