Topic on User talk:Roan Kattouw (WMF)

Hi. I really want to help develop MediaWiki, but I need some help to get started. I have Windows 10 Home. When I type "vagrant up" in Git Bash, it says

==> default: Verifying Hyper-V is enabled...
The Hyper-V cmdlets for PowerShell are not available! Vagrant
requires these to control Hyper-V. Please enable them in the
"Windows Features" control panel and try again.

Does this mean that I have to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, or do I need to do something in PowerShell? I'm kind of lost.

Pinging @Brion Vibber (WMF) who seems to know a lot about Vagrant/Hyper-V.

Sorry, I was on vacation when you posted your first comment, so I missed it.

I don't know anything about Vagrant, I don't use it myself. I also haven't used Windows in many years, so I'm afraid I can't be of much help here. I'll also ping @BDavis (WMF) who does a lot of Vagrant work. Even if the solution is simple and not directly Vagrant-related, I'm hoping we can add it to the documentation here on mediawiki.org so people won't have to ask this question in the future.

The last version of Windows I used was NT 4.5, so this fancy new Hyper-V stuff is not anything I've played with. These instructions at MSDN might help @Nirmos out.
