The windows binary is actually very close to working!
I believe the only change we need to make is including the additional files w/ node-pty that windows will output in the Release/build dir.
Edit: As for timeline, we don't have an exact date. We're focusing on improving support for Mac & Linux. If enough interest grows for Windows support, we will be sure to take notice.

@lazeebee I believe we have a new bundler in the works that should get us one step closer to getting the windows binary working

New Bundler for binary has been released! @nol166 Maybe we can re-test this? (I think Justin has a windows machine, no?)

@Multishifties I would like to test the new bundler, where I can find it ?
I'm a PowerShell developper and I need to use VSCode on Windows to develop for Windows PowerShell Edition. It's why a windows or windows Docker build is a requirement for me.

@fmichaleczek new Binary compiler is located here https://github.com/codercom/nbin Code-server uses this now instead of Nexe
AFAIK, it SHOULD allow you to compile for any platform where Node.js is supported. But I haven't had a chance to test it extensively yet.

@Multishifties I will try to test this week and give feedback on nbin repo.

Any updates?
Is there an expected time when Windows build will be available?

@maxloh Windows builds are low priority since there is more demand for ARM builds than Win32 builds.

@sr229 Vote for windows binary. Hope we can get it one day.
BTW, is there any guides to use code server with WSL?

@DarshanaSubhash We don't publish Windows releases at the moment but you can try installing with yarn. https://github.com/cdr/code-server/blob/master/doc/install.md#yarn-npm
