Hi, Hao Zhang! Welcome!

Others have answered most of your questions, so I'll just add a couple
comments below.

I'd recommend some Unix-like system for development, as that's the
best-maintained; but Windows is quite OK, if you're not familiar with
*ix. However I do recommend you stay away from cygwin because it behaves
very strangely, and is the least supported development platform, as far
as I know.

Your request is perfect. And don't worry about asking "too simple"
questions -- we're here to help you. Good luck with your project. :)
