The wiki seems to need an account to be able to edit it

Can someone with an account with proper editing rights and who is knowledgeable about building DMD check what needs to be updated?

All i know is druntime was moved to the dmd repo, so this step should be removed

For the rest i'm not sure, i see mentions of make but there is no make for windows

I forgot to include the link: https://wiki.dlang.org/Building_under_Windows

Oh looks like i had to click on the confirmation email to be able to make edits

I know, i'm porting the wiki to markdown, so i want to make sure the steps are all up to date

I can't find any information about that make on windows

The wiki is not up to date

Building dmd on windows has a long story on the forum :)
One guy made the detailed instruction, but unfortunately I can’t find it :(

Make could be installed from dmc, or better from msys64.

Check some info about building:

That's concerning, it's frustrating that people make breaking changes and don't bother updating the instruction on how to build it

I did a pass to remove the mention of druntime repo, but i'm not sure that's enough, i don't understand this guide

On Windows I have always used the Solution file to build it.

If the current information to build on Windows without VS is incorrect, please fix it if possible or let us know what is missing
