There are several ways to build EmptyEpsilon for Windows:

1. On a Linux machine, by cross-compiling to windows (Most reliable, how official releases are built)
2. On Windows by using the "Windows Subsystem for Linux" (WSL) (Reliable easy builds on Windows)
3. On Windows with Visual Studio
4. On Windows with Build Tools

MSI installer

An MSI installer can be generated, using the WIX Toolset. To use it, just pass CPACK_GENERATOR=WIX to CMake (either via the GUI or the commandline).

⚠️ NOTE:

As of may 2021, the installer is still in early stages and should be considered experimental.

⚠️ MSI and cross-compiling from Linux

If you are cross compiling from linux, you will not be able to generate the MSI package through CMake - WIX support is compiled out of CMake on non-win32 platforms
