Cpanel Git: Notes for Windows users

If you are using windows (no WSL) purely for your development. There are things you need to put in place.

Setting up nodejs

You can grab an installer from https://nodejs.org/ to setup nodejs. Follow the guide at https://pnpm.io/installation#using-npm if you would also like to install pnpm.

Setting up PHP

Regardless of the stack you are using e.g XAMPP or WAMP, php needs to be added to PATH. This should automatically be taken care of when installing composer.

After setting up your stack, get composer installer at https://getcomposer.org/. You can follow the guide at https://mehulgohil.com/blog/install-composer/ to setup composer. Ensure to tick the box that says "Add PHP to PATH" when prompted.
