@katteasis I have a Windows machine but I set up a separate Ubuntu instance running inside of Virtual Box. I prefer this setup because it keeps everything in a separate container as the EOS project installs a ton of dependencies that I don't need commingled with the rest of my files, and I can always destroy and re-create instances if something goes awry. Additionally (optional), I bought more RAM and moved this VM to a separate SSD, so its like I'm running two separate computers off my CPU without any loss of performance, and for little cost. Nsjames of Scatter made a good video describing how to do this:
