+While we do not currently support a native Windows version, you can still use it through a virtualisation layer
+of your choosing. The easiest way to use ''sac2c'' on a Windows 10 system is to use Window's own virtualisation
+for Linux support, the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).
+To do this, you have to do four things:
+  - You need to activate the developer mode of Windows. (Settings -> Update & Security -> For developers -> tick the Developer Mode)
+  - You need to activate the WSL. (Control Panel -> Programs -> Programs & Features -> Turn Features On & Off -> tick Windows Subsystem for Linux)
+  - Go to the Microsoft Store and choose a Linux Distribution of your choice, e.g, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
+  - Download the //basic// version of ''sac2c'' and ''sac-stdlib'' that matches the Linux version you have chosen and install it. For Ubuntu, you download the corresponding ''.deb'' files and then run
+<code>
+$sudo apt update
+$sudo apt install sac2c-VERSION-RELEASE.deb
+$sudo apt install sac-stdlib-VERSION-RELEASE.deb
+</code>
+After that, you should have the sac system up and running:
+the SaC binaries are postfixed by their release type (production or debug), so there is a ''sac2c_p'' and ''sac2c_d'' respectively, ''sac2c'' is simply a link to ''sac2c_p''.
