I develop on Windows, and my experience has been that unless a crate is specifically written for another platform, they generally work perfectly fine on Windows with two exceptions: 1. Terminal-related functions. This is getting better as cross-platform libraries are made, but Windows has had a generally shite terminal emulator and the more common libraries expected a *nix-style terminal. 2. The crate has a C or C++ dependency.
