#### On Windows (MSVC)
1. Install Python for Windows (https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2716/). The Windows x86-64 MSI installer is fine.
1. Install Python 2.7 for Windows (https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2716/). The Windows x86-64 MSI installer is fine. This is required for the build system execution and many dependencies.
You should change the installation to install the "Add python.exe to Path" feature.
2. Install Python 3.7 for Windows (https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-374/). The Windows x86-64 MSI installer is fine. This is required in order to build the JavaScript engine, SpiderMonkey.

4. Install Git for Windows (https://git-scm.com/download/win). DO allow it to add git.exe to the PATH (default
settings for the installer are fine).
