Windows Installation Guide

The opengradient package requires a C compiler to build its native dependencies. Windows does not have one by default.

Step 1 — Enable WSL

Open PowerShell as Administrator and run:

wsl --install

Restart your PC when prompted.

Step 2 — Install Python and uv inside WSL

Open the Ubuntu app and run:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y python3 curl
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
source $HOME/.local/bin/env

Step 3 — Install SDK

uv add opengradient

Step 4 — Verify

uv run python3 -c "import opengradient; print('Ready!')"

Common Errors

  • Visual C++ 14.0 required → Use WSL instead
  • wsl: command not found → Update Windows 10 to Build 19041+
  • WSL stuck → Enable Virtualization in BIOS
  • uv: command not found → Run: source $HOME/.local/bin/env
