## 📚 Intro
This project uses Windows Subsystem for Linux to run all buildozer stuff in a box so you only have to digit the command in Powershell or cmd. It's light and weigh just the needed to work. If you don't use WSL yet, [install it](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10#step-1---enable-the-windows-subsystem-for-linux).
## 💻 Specs
### Required
Minimum to use [wsldl](https://github.com/yuk7/wsldl)
* Windows 10 1709 Fall Creators Update 64bit or later.
* Windows Subsystem for Linux feature is enabled.
### Recommended
Minimum to use WSL2 (with WSL1 your project cannot be on Windows side)
* For x64 systems: Version 1903 or higher, with Build 18362 or higher.
* For ARM64 systems: Version 2004 or higher, with Build 19041 or higher.

Follow [these](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10#step-1---enable-the-windows-subsystem-for-linux) instructions until the fifth step
#### 2. [Download](https://github.com/ntaraujo/kivy-easier/releases/latest/download/ke-setup.exe) the .exe file and run it
A dialog box should appear asking for permission.
