A tool for installing and configuring a software development environment with an embedded help feature is provided. The help feature may provide a user (e.g., developer) with technical assistance to resolve problems that occur when building software. In one example, the system may include a configuration tool that includes a help feature and installs and configures one or more software programs to build software. The software programs may include, for example, operating systems, source code editors, debuggers, software build tools or any component of a software development environment. |
