 need to build and run the generator when you want to build additional wrappers
 or you want to upgrade/downgrade to another Qt version, but this requires
 updating the typesystems as well.

+# Building
+
+## Building on Windows with MinGW
+
+To build PythonQt, you need to set the environment variable `PYTHON_PATH` to
+point to the root dir of the python installation and `PYTHON_LIB` to point to 
+the directory where the python lib file is located. Then you should set the
+`PYTHON_VERSION` variable to the Python version number.
+
+When using the prebuild Python installer, this will be:
+
+```cmd
+set PYTHON_PATH = c:\Python38
+set PYTHON_LIB  = c:\Python38\libs
+set PYTHON_VERSION = 38
+```
