Installing rust on desktops without admin

Are you on a computer where you cannot get MSVC on a computer because of admin? Well, this guide should help you out!

Note

This guide is only for windows.

Download rustup/rust-init for windows. Download from here: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install or download from the web. Don't install it yet
Download msys2. You will not be using MSVC, but instead be compiling using GNU. It does not make any differences (afaik) compared to MSVC. Download it from here: https://www.msys2.org/ and run through the setup. Msys2 should not require admin as it is copying folders. In the case that it does require it,

Installing GitButler on WSL Ubuntu - A Complete Guide

Last updated: 2025-09-11 Installing Gitbutler Version: 0.16.0

This guide will provide a complete walkthrough for getting GitButler setup and functioning on a windows environment using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).

Please note that GitButler on windows via wsl is not well tested and not officially supported. Also, please note that installing and running GitButler on windows and pointing it to a WSL project folder or visa versa is not currently supported.

How to build

Prerequisites

Checkout branch main from https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime to C:\code\onnxruntime
Install Ninja: pip install ninja or download from github (make sure it's in PATH)

Build using the build_jsep.bat

Use the file js\build_jsep.bat. see its content for usage instruction

C:\code\onnxruntime>js\build_jsep d

If it's the first time to build, perform a clean build

This downloads standalone MSVC compiler, linker & other tools, also headers/libraries from Windows SDK into portable folder, without installing Visual Studio. Has bare minimum components - no UWP/Store/WindowsRT stuff, just files & tools for native desktop app development.

Run py.exe portable-msvc.py and it will download output into msvc folder. By default it will download latest available MSVC & Windows SDK - currently v14.40.33807 and v10.0.26100.0.

You can list available versions with py.exe portable-msvc.py --show-versions and then pass versions you want with --msvc-version and --sdk-version arguments.

To use cl.exe/link.exe first run setup_TARGET.bat - after that PATH/INCLUDE/LIB env variables will be updated to use all the tools as usual. You can also use clang-cl.exe with these includes & libraries.

To use clang-cl.exe without running setup.bat, pass extra /winsysroot msvc argument (msvc is folder name where output is stored).

Pure ESM package

The package that linked you here is now pure ESM. It cannot be require()'d from CommonJS.

This means you have the following choices:

Use ESM yourself. (preferred)
Use import foo from 'foo' instead of const foo = require('foo') to import the package. You also need to put "type": "module" in your package.json and more. Follow the below guide.
If the package is used in an async context, you could use await import(…) from CommonJS instead of require(…).
Stay on the existing version of the package until you can move to ESM.

SC1000 $ is not used specially and should therefore be escaped.
SC1001 This \o will be a regular 'o' in this context.
SC1003 Want to escape a single quote? echo 'This is how it'\''s done'.
SC1004 This backslash+linefeed is literal. Break outside single quotes if you just want to break the line.
SC1007 Remove space after = if trying to assign a value (or for empty string, use var='' ... ).
SC1008 This shebang was unrecognized. ShellCheck only supports sh/bash/dash/ksh. Add a 'shell' directive to specify.
SC1009 The mentioned parser error was in ...
SC1010 Use semicolo

`mysql2` gem + `mariadb` + Alpine Linux

tl;dr Use mariadb-dev. In case of Alpine Linux 3.8, 3.9, use mysql2 >= 0.4.10.

Starting with Alpine Linux 3.8 there are basically 2 options to install the mysql2 gem:
