Is it possible to setup a development environment on Windows for Odoo (from source)?


It is offered as a possibility in the installation instructions, but I am getting failures.

The installation instructions seem to be out of date.  Has anyone successfully accomplished this?

  1. Environment: Windows 10 Pro (latest)

  2. Python 3.8.2

I am following instructions for installing Odoo (from community source on Windows) from this page:

Environment: 


I am getting the following error.

Documentation says  Odoo requires Python 3.6 or later to run v13  but  Odoo not support Python 3.8 yet,  Install Python 3.6 or 3.7. ,It Works !

It does not look possible to get Odoo running with Python 3.8.x at the moment.

Odoo third party dependencies will not work with Python 3.8.x, the installation instructions should be updated that Odoo can only be run with Python 3.7.x and below at the moment.

I was able to get things installed and running with Python 3.7.7.
