 How to build ca2 Framework simple solution at Windows...

Check the prerequisites at Windows, if you haven't done so already.

 Create folder named simple and clone repository in it.

Please change the target folder name from simple by desired name, if you want to change it. You can use another parent folder as long as you have proper permissions for writing and executing programs under it. This is the reason why user profile folder is suggested. Please, avoid spaces, too special characters or too long names in the path (folder name and parent folder names). We are putting at C:\Users\<YourUserName>\simple (Assuming %UserProfile% location is C:\Users\<YourUserName>)
