Hello!

The easiest way is to use Docker.

https://docs.docker.com/desktop/setup/install/windows-install/

Then follow the installation steps in the readme to install it.

I've been trying for about two days now. But it doesn't work. Docker Desktop gives a WSL2 error.
I don't know where the problem is. I enabled virtualization in BIOS and also enabled WSL in Windows Futures. But I still get the error.
Please help. I'm tired of unsuccessful attempts

My cpu is intel Q9650

Can other containers run?
Any error logs?

No. The Docker engine is always stopped. It won't run at all. I can't run any containers. I'll try to send you a screenshot.

WSL2 is not supported with your current machine configuration.

It seems that your current configuration does not support WSL2.

Maybe your hardware is too old, maybe you can upgrade them.

Thanks but I don't know what to do
npm and gradle are not available on Windows, right?
How should I run those commands?

[ahmad02223]

Please tell me more details

You can download an intellij idea first. Then import the project into it.
If you encounter some problems that cannot be solved, you can try searching on Google or asking ChatGPT.

i installed intellij idea and imported project. and i do this

now what should i do?

You need to copy .env.example to .env.local, fill in the content, and then start the api and web projects respectively.

When starting the API, you need to add the parameter: -Djava.library.path=your tdlib path, and set env path to .env.local path.
