| If you are using Windows, you will need to install [the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install). WSL will have the ssh programs you need by default, so once you've installed WSL you are ready for this tutorial. |

Note that newer Windows systems have SSH pre-installed in the Windows shell and you can use it in the same way. However, I'm not sure how it behaves regarding configs and the like. But figuring that out and perhaps adding a note could be something to figure out.

Noted. Will look into and add whatever is relevant.

Are you planning to use this picture somewhere else? Because it doesn't seem to be referenced in the setup.md...

No, I don´t think so. I'll double check with Amy, but I'm fairly certain that she made it for this tutorial specifically. I think she intended for it to be used on the Introduction page.
Added a brief section about OpenSSH for newer versions of windows as well as a link to Microsoft's page on getting started with OpenSSH.

| Note: If your version of Windows is either Windows 10 version 1809 or newer, then you have access to a windows ssh program called OpenSSH. More information about OpenSSH can be found [here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/openssh/openssh_install_firstuse?tabs=gui). |

This should come first. If people have Win > 10, they don't need WSL, right (it currently seems to contradict the first sentence)?

You're right. I'll go ahead and change that.
