In order to support Windows development we currently require you to use one of the following: We do not support Windows native development anymore and in order to develop Kibana on Windows you must use **WSL** which will give you a much better experience.
Please check our <DocLink id="kibDevTutorialSetupWindowsDevWSL" text="tutorial"/> to know how to setup the environment and then follow the rest of this guide inside **WSL**.
- [Git Bash](https://git-scm.com/download/win)
- [Windows Subsystem for Linux (recommended)](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/about)
If you want to know more about how to setup and use WSL for development on Windows, which will become our only supported way in the upcoming future, please check our <DocLink id="kibDevTutorialSetupWindowsDevWSL" text="tutorial"/>.
Before running the steps below, please make sure you have installed [Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145) and that you are running all commands in either Git Bash or WSL.
