Sunshine not important, warmth is what it's all about? I've got windowsills (obviously), but none that get much direct sun, whereas outside they are in prime position and get it all day long.
Tried a green one just now and it was great - proper spicy and that nice fresh vegetal taste, so I've harvested one of my five plants. But I definitely want some to ripen red if I can.

They ripen with warmth - just put the plant inside, like on a windowsill 👍
You can also eat / use them while still green, but taste / aroma will be different (as with bell peppers).
