This is sufficient for generating hardware. For simulation continue with either choice below.
In case you want to build the tools yourself have a look at the legacy simulation tool :ref:`installation instructions <sim backend install>`.

.. note::
An All-in-One solution is available to install and run SpinalHDL with Verilator simulation and formal verification via SymbiYosys.
Download `it <https://github.com/Readon/msys2-installer/releases>`_ and install the environment anywhere on your disk.
Start the build environment by clicking on the MSYS2-MINGW64 icon in the Start menu and use the MSYS2 default console.
An alternative is to use the Windows Terminal or a Tabby-like application and use the startup command ``%MSYS2_ROOT%\msys2_shell.cmd -defterm -here -no-start -mingw64``, where the ``%MSYS2_ROOT%`` is the location of the msys2 installation.
It is worth noting that if you want to use it offline, you should carefully select the libraries that the project depends on, otherwise you will need to download the packages manually.
See the README for the repos for more details.
