Summary

Installing the Unix tools on Windows is quite painful. To make things easier,
I explained how to use a package manager or a Docker image.

Note: This still uses the GNUWin tools as explained on this page. Once we
replace these with something else, we would also need to update the
installation commands.

I think it's a typo and the name is Chocolatey without the L at the end; here and in the next line too.
