 These ports are pretty straightforward (not to say dumb) and most probably can be optimized. But they have been extensively tested in our Rubik's cube solving machines ([FAC System Solver](https://blog.zok.pw/hacking/2015/08/18/fac-rubik-solver/) and [Meccano Rubik's Shrine](http://blog.zok.pw/hacking/2016/08/12/meccano-rubiks-shrine/)), so be confident the algorithm is working.

+Library should work on Windows, however it is not automatically tested at this moment: Travis CI [doesn't have windows support](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/2104).

+Normal `pip install kociemba` (or `pip3 install kociemba` for Python 3.3+) should work, but you will need to install free build tools from Microsoft first. Check the following links:

+## Usage
 
 The package exposes just one function ```solve()```, which accepts a cube definition string and returns a solution string in standard notation (see below).
 Optional second argument allows solving to a specific pattern.

 Solution string consists of space-separated parts, each of them represents a single move:
 * A single letter by itself means to turn that face clockwise 90 degrees.
