### Install GTK Sharp
To compile the full project under windows, you must have [gtk-sharp](http://www.mono-project.com/download/#download-win) installed. However, if you're
not interested in building the cross-platform bits you can simply unload these projects from Visual Studio:
- Avalonia.Cairo
- Avalonia.Cairo.RenderTests
- Avalonia.Gtk
For the moment under windows, you must have [gtk-sharp](http://www.mono-project.com/download/#download-win) installed. Note that after installing the package your machine may require a restart before GTK# is added to your path. We hope to remove or make this dependency optional at some point in the future.
