Installing the Pebble SDK on Windows is not officially supported at this time.
However, you can choose from several alternative strategies to develop watchfaces and watchapps on Windows.
Use CloudPebble
[CloudPebble][cloudpebble] is the official online development environment for writing Pebble apps.
It allows you to create, edit, build and distribute applications in your web browser without installing anything on your computer.
Pebble strongly recommends [CloudPebble][cloudpebble] for Windows users.
Use a Virtual Machine
You can also download and run the Pebble SDK in a virtual machine.
- Install a virtual machine manager such as VirtualBox (free) or VMWare Workstation.
- Install Ubuntu Linux in a virtual machine.
- Follow the standard Linux installation instructions.
