Add Python 3.9 requirement and WSL note to setup docs

Open NihalShinde4933 opened this issue 6 months ago • 1 comments

Summary

This PR updates docs/getting_started.rst to:

  • Clarify that Python 3.9 is required for development.
  • Recommend using WSL instead of native Windows for Kolibri development.

Motivation

During setup, I encountered issues due to:

  • pre-commit needing Python 3.9+ (not mentioned explicitly).

  • Running Kolibri directly on Windows (unsupported as per maintainers).

This documentation improvement aims to save new contributors from similar issues.

Notes

  • Fixed CRLF to LF line endings to avoid whole-file diffs.
  • Re-submission after feedback on previous PR.
