+## Getting Started - Windows
+
+1. [Install chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/install)
+2. Install a decent terminal. This invokes a bunch of KBs.
+```powershell
+choco install microsoft-windows-terminal
+```
+
+3. Set dark theme (non-admin prompt)
+```
+Set-ItemProperty -Path HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize -Name AppsUseLightTheme -Value 0
+```
+
+4. Reboot after first setup - you may see errors in `choco` commands otherwise.
+5. Set the PC time zone correctly - otherwise expect an install error in later `choco` commands.
+
+4. More packages
+```
+choco install git 
+choco install code
+choco install powertoys
+ 
+```
