Where is .bashrc file located in WSL?
Being a completely newcomer in linux world, I'm trying to make some development using ubuntu features. I wanted to add some alias to .bashrc but couldn't find it.
There is an answer on this qustion, but its not a duplicate, because while working on an older versions of windows on my 1803 system it's doesn't work.

Yes, I saw this post. On my system just isn't Lxss folder. I found it with opening home/username directory in VIM. Bash not shows content of this folder. And after earthmeLon told me about hidden files I decided to open entire folder in VIM, and it works) Thank you.
