- after installing general dependencies and cloning repo (as above), run `start-venv.sh` which will create a virtual env for you and install python requirements

### Building under windows os
(this instruction is work-in-progress, please help us test it and improve it!)
- install python from https://www.python.org/downloads/
- install some windows compiler suitable for python , this proved to be the most difficult part for me as non-windows user (see here https://wiki.python.org/moin/WindowsCompilers and i'll link more references later)
- [optionally to get latest dev version] install git from https://git-scm.com/downloads
- [optionally to use tor for better connectivity and anonymization] install tor browser from https://www.torproject.org/download/
- open git bash console
- type/copypaste `git clone https://github.com/zeronet-conservancy/zeronet-conservancy.git` into command line
- wait till git downloads latest dev version and continue in console
- `cd zeronet-conservancy`
- `python -m venv venv` (create virtual python environment)
- `venv\Scripts\activate` (this activates the environment)
- `pip install -r requirements.txt` (install python dependencies)
- (NOTE: if previous step fails, it most likely means you haven't installed c/c++ compiler successfully)
- [optional for tor for better connectivity and anonymity] launch Tor Browser
- (NOTE: windows might show a window saying it blocked access to internet for "security reasons" — you should allow the access)
- `python zeronet.py --tor_proxy 127.0.0.1:9150 --tor_controller 127.0.0.1:9151` (launch zeronet-conservancy!)
- [for full tor anonymity launch this instead] `python zeronet.py --tor_proxy 127.0.0.1:9150 --tor_controller 127.0.0.1:9151 --tor always`
- navigate to http://127.0.0.1:43110 in your favourite browser!
