 On Linux, an executable called 'pgAdmin4' will be built, and on Mac OS X, an
 app bundle called pgAdmin4.app will be created.
 
-At the time of writing, no attempt has been made to build the runtime on a
-Windows system, though in theory it should work.
+To build the runtime on Windows system, export PYTHON_HOME and PYTHON_VERSION variables in System environment.
+Specify the PYTHON_VERSION with major and minor number. Do not specify micro level version.
+Python version A.B.C means A - Major number, B - Minor number, C - Micro level (Bug fix releases).
+If Python version is 2.8.2 than specify PYTHON_VERSION=28
+
+ e.g. PYTHON_HOME=C:\Python27\
+      PYTHON_VERSION=27
