  • You can use PowerShell on Windows. Very powerful ! You just need to install ruby, compass, node, git and npm. After that, use : `foundation new your_project` – mpgn Feb 02 '14 at 15:28

Bash is a Unix Shell, which basically allows you to type commands on your computer to execute tasks.

When you install Git on Windows, you also get a version of Git Bash, which you can use for Git commands.

Your best bet is to use something like Cygwin which replicates unix functionality on a Windows machine. Once you have installed Cygwin, you may need to set up your PATH environment variable so that when you execute git or ruby commands, they know where to look.

There is some help here on setting up environment variables.
