2. Requirements

2.1 Operating System

• Linux is recommended (Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, etc.)

  Most scripts, bash/sh commands, and Kathara are fully supported on Linux.

• Windows can be used, but some scripts may require adjustments and bash/sh commands will not work natively.

  Using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) or a Linux VM is recommended for full functionality.
