Not OP here -- but I've been putting off re-writing a mess of a nodejs to binary (nexe = huge binary, gah!) implementation of a simple utility http service in hopes that Crystal would gain windows support. I've been stalling for a few months.
I have seen that you were able to make some progress here, awesome!
It looks like Windows support for Crystal is too far off on the horizon, however. I'll be starting the re-write in Rust instead, unfortunately.
I think there could be strong demand for Crystal on Windows. There are a lot of ruby devs out there or people who simply prefer writing ruby-like code, who would automatically jump to crystal _just_ for this reason.
