The basic 'setup.py install' works on Windows. There are binary installers available for the other pieces you might need (MySQLdb in particular, since you mention MySQL). I don't believe Django is any harder to get running on Windows for someone who is used to using Windows than it is to get running on Linux for someone who is familiar with Linux. > I guess this also means I'd have to expose my MySQL database to the > LAN... > Depends. You could go with sqlite during development but I personally wouldn't do that since I'd rather not trip across database differences as code moves to production. Alternatively you can run a MySQL server on your development machine and populate it with data from your production setup.
