Does this mean I can run the Build Your Own Text Editor[0] tutorial in Windows without WSL? I did it in Linux a few years ago, recently heard of Crossterm[1] and was thinking trying to remake it with that, but maybe it's not necessary?

Crossterm does indeed work well under Windows Terminal. I use it indirectly via the ratatui library[1]
