# Windows Setup

[https://xedant.com/code/windows.md](https://xedant.com/code/windows.md)

Don’t want to read through all this? Just point any AI chat (Claude, ChatGPT, etc.) to [this page in Markdown](https://xedant.com/code/windows.md)
 or to the [llms.txt](/llms.txt)
 index, and ask it to generate the config files and commands for you. It’ll read the docs, ask you a few questions about your setup, and give you ready-to-use configuration. Save your time — let the model do the reading.

 You could also contact me via Telegram — I’m always eager to help. I’m not being just polite here — I really like to chat with like-minded people, especially if you love coding as much as I do.

### Latest Version

If you are new, download the latest version. It’s an automated build of the most recent code and features.

[Download XedantCode-Setup-1.0.84.exe (47Mb)](https://download.xedant.com/code/windows/XedantCode-Setup-1.0.84.exe)

### Legacy Archive

I keep archive of legacy versions to avoid interruptions of your work. If the most recent version has bugs I missed, you could always rollback to the latest stable version. Please note that installing legacy versions in the first place would limit your trial license time because of built-in older license key.

### [Prefer Docker Instead?](/code/windows-docker-desktop)

Run Xedant Code in Docker Desktop on Windows with WSL 2 backend for full container isolation.

**Important Notice**

## Per-project instances

Xedant Code runs on per-project basis: one instance per project. It fully isolates projects from each other, making it easier to launch and stop individual instances on demand.

By default the app is installed with a multi-framework demo project to showcase all the features from development to building, linting, deploying and auto-fixing bugs, skill management and others. When you launch the app directly, you would see this demo project.

### How to setup your project

You would need to create either a .bat file that sets [environment variables](/code/docs/environments)
 for it, or create a shortcut that passes them via command-line. You don’t need to remember them – just pass documentation url or markdown file to any model of your choice and ask it to generate .bat file or command-line parameter list for your project.

### Shared skills

Separate skills repo was implemented on purpose: it enables to reuse common skills like planning and skill editing between projects. It also makes it easier to create new skills using existing ones as a template. You could start with a demo skills repo, then copy it to your own repo for updating and extending.

## Installation

Introduction – too long to read, just for backup purposes in case online docs aren’t available at the moment.

![Image](https://xedant.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image.png)Demo project default port, leave it as is. Each of your projects could have its own individual port, this option is for demo purposes only.

![Image](https://xedant.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-1.png)Demo project path – you could leave it as is. Your projects would have their own folders according to [environment variables](/code/docs/environments)
.

, used by default for all your projects and could be updated by re-installing the app. Your projects could also have their own logins and passwords if you like – it’s set with project-specific environment variables as well.

, automatically applied to all your projects. On the other hand, each of your projects could have their own license keys as well.
