Victor,
Yes, something that is or is like docker. I hear windows devs use it a lot. But I've never needed it, so couldn't tell you much about any of the container frameworks.
Martin,

Hi Martin,
when you say "Windows based ansible container" you mean something like Docker?

Hi Victor,
Documenting using Virtual Box would be good. The inkscape-web wiki is on gitlab: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape-web/wikis/
A bundle can be made and made available on the website. Although for that sort of bundling (if I understand this all right) you can make a windows based ansible container instead. But I don't know much about all that.
Best Regards, Martin Owens

Hi Olof,
I am trying this option right now and it seems that it will work. So +1 for this! However, since this solution only applies for the version 10 of Windows... and we would like, I believe, to make this more uniform experience.. what would you say if we document a way, in Inkscape wiki, for windows users to download a certain version of Ubuntu (16 or 17, for now) and configure it on Oracle Virtual Box?
How is this seen by Inkscape project? Is it ok if I separate a lot of programs and put then in a Dropbox/MegaUpload account with the links to download? Sort of a Inkscape-Website-Windows-Bundle-SDK-ish? ;-)
Let me know your thoughts on this.

Victor you could also try the Linux subsystem for Windows 10:

Guess it depends on what is in those scripts if it will work.

Hi Martin,
I was able to clone the inkscape-web project to my machine. But the 3rd and 4th commands I believe are only targeted to Linux machines and not Windows.
./utils/init ./utils/run [<domain>:<port>]
Do you know how can I run those on Windows?
Possibly you may want to look at how to run a Linux virtual machine on Windows, and run the commands inside that.
