For WSL users, `libxrender1 <https://packages.debian.org/sid/libxrender1>`_ may also need to be installed.

will let you know if they are missing. To install any missing packages, you should use the appropriate package manager

sudo apt install git gcc g++ make
sudo apt install git gcc g++ make libxrender1
