It is possible to download and use this entire repo on windows, with the exception of deepspeed. After trying to install the alignment-notebook package I found you can simply remove deepspeed from the setup.py and all the lines with deepspeed, and remove it. Doing so allows you to run “pip install .” With out any errors. Doing this will make multi-gpu’s not work, but that was kinda obvious for anyone who is trying to use multi gpu support. Otherwise everything else in the repo works just great!
