How to properly install Hack and HHVM on Windows 7


I am trying to install and configure Facebook programming language Hack and HHVM on Windows, probably Windows 7. I could not find any solution on it. I saw a Bitnami link which suggest HHVM Installers.

I have downloaded the installer files HHVM installer files but it cannot run on Windows due .run extension filename. How can I achieve this using HACK and HHVM installations on Windows 7.


Solution

  • Hack and HHVM do not support Windows. There was some work in 2015, but it doesn't seem to have continued since then.

    Recent versions of HHVM do not support PHP. The Bitnami link mentions running phpmyadmin, so it looks like it's targeting an old HHVM release.
