# Windows notes
You will need an installation of gcc for this to work. The MinGW-w64 project provides a compiler toolchain for Windows. Make sure to install the appropriate architecture corresponding to your installation of rustc.
Currently use of this crate means that Windows users will require gcc to be
installed at compile-time. This is typically acquired through the
[MinGW-w64](http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net), although we recommend installing
through [MSYS2 instead][msys2]. Make sure to install the appropriate
architecture corresponding to your installation of rustc.

Make sure that the installation directory containing gcc is in your PATH environment variable.
Once gcc is installed, it also requires that the directory containing gcc is in
the PATH environment variable.
