installed, you can build an older version of the LAPACK sources that has been converted
to C - but its performance will likely be slower and accuracy may be poorer too.)

`flang` as an add-on to clang/LLVM or `gfortran` as part of MinGW for this

this, be sure to also use the Intel C compiler (`icc` or `icx`) for building

newer installed.
1. Install Miniconda3 for 64-bit Windows using `winget install --id Anaconda.Miniconda3`,
or easily download from [conda.io](https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html).
1. Install Miniforge for 64-bit Windows with the latest version of the installer Miniforge3-Windows-x86_64.exe
available on [github.com](https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/)
2. Open the "Anaconda Command Prompt" now available in the Start Menu, or at `%USERPROFILE%\miniconda3\shell\condabin\conda-hook.ps1`.
3. In that command prompt window, use `cd` to change to the directory where you want to build OpenBLAS.
4. Now install all of the tools we need:
```
conda update -n base conda
conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda install -y cmake flang clangdev perl libflang ninja
conda install -y cmake flang_win-64 clangdev perl libflang ninja
```
5. Still in the Anaconda Command Prompt window, activate the 64-bit MSVC environment with `vcvarsall x64`.
On Windows 11 with Visual Studio 2022, this would be done by invoking:
