  1. Download Github from

  2. Open GITHUB and sign in

  3. Navigate to https://github.com/majdal/modex and click "Clone in Desktop"

  4. Download and install “Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition with SP1” from: here and here

  5. Download and install Python 2.x.y from here. Choose “Windows Installer” (32bit version) not “Windows X86-64 Installer”.

  6. Download and install pywin32 from here

  7. Click on pywin32 folder

  8. Click on the first folder (in this case, Build 217, maybe newer when you try)

  9. Choose the file ending with .win32-py2.x.exe -> x being the minor version of Python you installed (in this case, 7) When writing this guide, the file was this.

  10. Open Github Shell from the start menu

  11. Type [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", "$env:Path;C:\Python27\;C:\Python27\Scripts\", "User")

  12. This didn't work for me (maybe because of administrator issues) so I had to go to Control Panel > search for Edit the system environment variables. Once System Properties is open, click on Environment Variables > New under System Variables and add Variable Name: Path, Variable Value: $env:Path;C:\Python27\;C:\Python27\Scripts\

  13. Download these two files (ez_setup, pip)

  14. Open GITHUB Shell

  15. Navigate to where you downloaded the files from Step 10 and run them: First, python ez_setup.py, then. python get-pip.py

  16. Close and open GITHUB Shell

  17. Navigate to the modex folder (Most likely in your Documents folder under GITHUB)

  18. Type pip install twisted and press Enter

  19. Type pip install -r requirements.txt and press Enter

  20. Type python run.py and press Enter

  21. Hopefully, this will open a new browser window pointing to http://127.0.0.1:8080.
