Windows Requirements
--------------------
In Windows, you will first need to install the `Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler
for Python 2.7
<https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266>`_. This
package contains the compiler and the set of system headers necessary for

In Windows, you will first need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler,
which is different depending on the version of Python that you plan to use:
* Python 3.5, 3.6: `Visual C++ 2015 Build Tools
<http://landinghub.visualstudio.com/visual-cpp-build-tools>`_,

* Python 2.7: `Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7
<https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266>`_, which

This package contains the compiler and the set of system headers necessary for

Windows (only advanced users), follow `this link <https://wiki.python.org/moin/WindowsCompilers>`_.
Once you have the above compiler installed, the easiest and best supported way
to install Catalyst in Windows is to use :ref:`Conda <conda>`. If you didn't
