[petsc-users] PETSc Windows Installation

[Mohammad Ali Yaqteen]

I have written backend code for a software company. If WSL2 and VSCode(Linux) can be called through a command line and executed at the backend, then it will be great. But if I have to install WSL2 and other required things on every other PC that will run that software, then I think I will be at a disadvantage. What do you suggest?

Thank you
Ali

Likely the compilers are not setup correctly as per instructions.

https://petsc.org/release/install/windows/#installation-with-microsoft-intel-windows-compilers

And if you do not have a specific windows need - and only need IDE - perhaps a WSL2 (aka linux) install with VSCode(linux) might be the way to go.
