Still need to be able to use custom terminals. Specifically, I'd like to be able to use the WSL terminal so I can use linux commands.

Add support for vscode terminal too.

Thank you for adding Bash, this is a big step up from command prompt.
Will you be adding PowerShell as an option?

Valerio Cassimatis: We don't have immediate plans for PowerShell, but the work to enable Git Bash should make this easier to implement in the future.
If others are interested in seeing PowerShell support, it can be voted on here (thanks for the vote on this already, Valerio! 😃): https://feedback.localwp.com/feature-requests/p/use-windows-powershell

Hi all, changing the default terminal on Windows is now available in Local Beta 5.6.5!
Currently, you'll be able to switch between Command Prompt and Git Bash.
