Download MSVC compiler/linker & Windows SDK without installing full Visual Studio

This downloads standalone 64-bit MSVC compiler, linker & other tools, also headers/libraries from Windows SDK into portable folder, without installing Visual Studio. Has bare minimum components - no UWP/Store/WindowsRT stuff, just files & tools for 64-bit native desktop app development.

Run python.exe portable-msvc.py and it will download output into msvc folder. By default it will download latest available MSVC & Windows SDK - currently v14.32.17.2 and v10.0.22621.0.

You can list available versions with python.exe portable-msvc.py --show-versions and then pass versions you want with --msvc-version and --sdk-version arguments.

To use cl.exe/link.exe from output folder, first run setup.bat - after that PATH/INCLUDE/LIB env variables will be setup to use all the tools as usual. You can also use clang-cl.exe with these includes & libraries.

To use clang-cl.exe without running setup.bat, pass extra /winsysroot msvc argument (msvc is folder name where output is stored).

Recursive wget ignoring robots
$ wget -e robots=off -r -np 'http://example.com/folder/'
  • -e robots=off causes it to ignore robots.txt for that domain
  • -r makes it recursive
  • -np = no parents, so it doesn't follow links up to the parent folder

a simple guide for getting a local web server set up

Do I have a web server running?


having a web server turned on doesn't necessarily mean you are serving pages on the world wide web. its what allows you to load your own static files (.html, .js etc.) in a browser via http://.

if you're not sure whether or not you have a web server running, no problem! its easy to confirm.

what happens when you visit http://localhost/?
