I don't have a windows machine, so I'm trying to run Analysis Situs on GCP or AWS. Is there anyone that got the program working over there? What machine specs are recommended? What other installs do I need to do to get it working? If it is possible to install on a mac that would be even better, but I guess that's tricky.
I believe I'm getting stuck because I'm on Windows Server, but maybe there is a way to get it to work. I tried the following:
I'm on a Windows Server box in GCP and installed Analysis Situs. At first the program didn't open at all but I believe installing visual studio c++ helped. I also installed OpenCascade libraries, but not sure if that was necessary.
Now the program opens but I'm hitting the errors in the image below. I then installed MSYS2, and then toolchain freeglut and glew with the following commands in the mysys2 terminal:
```
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-freeglut
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-glew
```
