Install problem on windows 10

[ibejimb]

I'm having a problem installing Mealie following the instructions from https://www.ipv6.rs/tutorial/Windows_10/Mealie/#:~:text=You%20can%20now%20access%20Mealie,give%20IPv6.rs%20a%20try! I get stuck at Step 3 Step 3: Install Requirements
Navigate to the "mealie" directory in the command prompt and run the following command to install the required python packages: pip install -r requirements.txt with the error "C:\Mealie>pip install -r requirements.txt
ERROR: Could not open requirements file: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'requirements.txt'"

Installations on Windows 10 or other systems outside of Docker are not supported by Mealie.

Supported installation methods are here: https://docs.mealie.io/documentation/getting-started/installation/installation-checklist/

You could also post over on the Discord to see if anyone else has set it up / got it working on Windows 10 directly.

Yeah, i don't know from when this guide is, but there hasn't been an requirements.txt for quite some time in this project.

We strongly suggest using an istallation via docker, which is the only installation method we support.
Users with advanced knowledge may be able to install mealie directly, but it is not recommended as it makes it much harder to install in the first place and upgrade from there.

I'll go ahead and close this since this is not relevant to any new version of mealie.
