Where can I find a complete tutorial for Windows? Trellis + Sage

PRs accepted. :middle_finger:

A Windows User’s Quick Guide to Using Roots Stack

Requirements

While not required, I would also recommend installing the full version of cmder. It will come with git, ssh, and many other binaries and aliases that are needed to get shit done.

Development Environment

(Poached from roots-example-project.com/readme.md)

  1. Clone this repository into a working directory (e.g., %userprofile%\Sites)
$ git clone git@github.com:roots/roots-example-project.com.git
  1. Install theme components
# @ roots-example-project.com/site/web/app/themes/sage
$ npm install
$ bower install
$ gulp
  1. Fire up the server (be patient, but watch the console––it may prompt for your system password)
# @ roots-example-project.com/trellis
$ vagrant up
 _Note: to shut down the server:_ `vagrant halt`
  1. Test the install at roots-example-project.dev

Fin.

Following those steps on a new installation of Windows 7-10 should yield you a working copy of roots-example-project.com. You can tinker with it and modify its configuration as needed to suit your needs. You can also follow the instructions in the project’s repo on how to manually compile the stack by yourself.
