`winget` is a Windows package manager. It will make package installation easy
|
||||||
|
on Windows.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Run the following in a terminal:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```powershell
|
||||||
|
winget install python
|
||||||
|
winget install cmake
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If any of those is installed already, winget will detect it.
|
||||||
|
Then edit your systems `PATH` variable and add: `C:\Program Files\CMake\bin`.
