1 month ago The Makefile uses Linux commands which are not available in the Windows command line. However, they are included in Git Bash which is installed with git on Windows (you should have it available if you called choco upgrade git ...).
I will add a note to the tutorial indicating that you have to us Git Bash. Thanks for catching the issue
Sorry if this problem has already been addressed or if this was due to an error on my end
While following the tutorial to start a project, I kept encountering this error during compilation:

Though on the documentation, there is no mention of OS requirements.
Work around:
In the Makefile, I temporarily changed the config section (25 - 36) to replace the following bash commands:
Which ended up producing the result as intended.
