I think it because of I use bash commands to run and clean build like rm -f ./build/stats.json;ls -d -1 ./build/public/* | xargs rm -rf;ls -d -1 ./build/prerender/* | xargs rm -rf;cp -r ./web/assets ./build/public/assets"
And it looks like this commands doesn't work on windows at all.
I have no windows distribution and need help or time to read how to prepare npm scripts for windows.

[miguelsff]

Thank you for you answer. I will try with a Linux distribution

[sushant-kumar17]

Same issue with me too. Please do something I want to run this on windows.

[istarkov]

I can't i have no windows at home and at the work.

+1, have exactly the same issue on Windows when running npm run hot-dev-server. In addition, I got some errors on the npm install:

> node scripts/build.js

module.js:341
    throw err;
    ^

I will not do any change to support windows for this project, as I wrote above I have no Windows distribution so I can't test or run code on Windows.
I think that Windows is not intended for web development (and for any other development) at all.
I will accept PR which will convert bash code above in some kind of cross compatible script.
I highly recommend to all of you to move out from windows ;-)

[ericgrosse]

Well then at the very least you should update your documentation to make it clear that a non-docker installation doesn't work on Windows. Almost 90% of PCs run Windows, so you're alienating the majority of your potential audience of this library by not supporting it.

[istarkov]

100% developers I know, does not use windows.
For a lot of months this project alive, you are just 3rd who has the problems with installation.
As I said I will not do any change even in documentation to make windows developers life easier ;-)

If any windows user is really need to build this project it's not big problem to transform bash code.

[istarkov]

Also project has docker support, just use docker for build.
