Following the installation instructions for developers (https://github.com/trixi-framework/Trixi.jl?tab=readme-ov-file#for-developers) did not work on Windows 11 in powershell.

ERROR: UndefVarError: `..` not defined

We had to escape the quotes, i.e. julia --project=. -e 'using Pkg; Pkg.develop(PackageSpec(path=\"..\"))' worked.
Could we use another easy expression here, which works on all platforms? Something like e.g. dirname(pwd())?

Sounds good to me. Could you please make a PR and search for similar patterns in the docs?

Can you maybe cross check with the 0th tutorial that also includes Windows instructions? Maybe they have another approach there or maybe it also needs fixing.
