Postgres on WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) ubuntu 18.04

Hint: it's not different than running it under ubuntu without Windows.

sudo apt install postgresql-common
sudo sh /usr/share/postgresql-common/pgdg/apt.postgresql.org.sh

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install postgresql-12

sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql start

sudo -i -u postgres
psql

Thank you
