• A working Windows 10 pro setup.
  • Set a password for your user
• Git including Git Bash. Download the current version here: https://git-scm.com/download/win
• Microsoft C++ Build Toolsi 2019. Download: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/de/downloads/

Warning

Some problem prevents a tls connection between the buildbot-worker on windows and the reverse proxy (traefik) in front of the buildmaster. Because of this, tls is deactivated! Make sure to establish the connection between worker and buildmaster in a trusted environment only. Currently, the buildmaster and the windows-vm share a subnet for this purpose.
