For Windows support, have a look at https://github.com/sgelb/refugeePhrasebookCreator#windows. I was surprised how easy it was to install the requirements. Git for Windows includes Bash 4 and the GNU coreutils and of course git. MiKTeX installs missing Tex-packages on the fly when compiling the tex source. Pretty nice!
