the following executables are checked to be in your `$PATH`:
"infctl" "pwgen" "kubectl" "k3d" "helm" "jq" "docker"
"infctl" "pwgen" "kubectl" "k3d" "helm" "jq" "docker" "vagrant" "git"
if any of these are missing, a development environment cannot be created.
if any of these are missing, an MVK development environment may fail.
### Note for windows users
Linux and Mac already have `bash` and often `git` installed as part of a default developer environment, however Windows may not, so for MVK, we can use [Git Bash](https://git-scm.com/downloads), so check you have this installed on Windows if not already.
Windows will need `jq` to be installed by [downloading](https://jqlang.org/download/) it or installing with `winget install jqlang.jq.`
Use Git Bash from here on to run `infctl` commands as they will require for there to be a bash shell to run any of its plugins.
## Install Pre-Requisites
`infctl` - see [quick start](/guides/quick-start/)
