I spent a night trying to compile to Windows lol

I tried to compile in MSYS2+Mingw64 on windows 10 64bits, but failed. And the files take so many disk space, I have to delete them now.

I am look forwards to a pre-compiled windows building too.

Windows users are so "codon."

"codon" means lonely in Vietnamese (cô đơn)

Right now, you can use WLS to run Codon.

We plan to support Windows in the future. There are only a few POSIXy things that need to be ported over. However, none of the developers use or have access to Windows machines, so we cannot provide an ETA at the moment.

Is there any updates about this.

Cant i just use codon to generate LLVM IR then throw it in an LLVM backend to transform it into a native windows exe?

You can get a free windows like this: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virtual-machines/

For the developers that don't have windows.
