is there any plan to have clients for windows ?

[kdavis-mozilla]

No immediate plans, but if there is sufficient demand we will.

You can already get it running on Windows Subsystem for Linux.

Where should we voice demand for it?

[ccoenen]

I'd like to chime in: how is demand measured? Do we just Thumbs-Up this ticket?

@ccoenen That's one thing, It also depends on what value it brings to the project, and how much work it is. And we need someone that has time, as well. TensorFlow support for Windows has greatly improved since several releases, and we also have been able to move on several topics, so it might happen sonner or later. I'd like to hack that, but I have a few of more urgent things to complete on, but what would be nice is OpenCL + Windows. I spent quite some time hacking on the first part, and it's looking not too bad :)

[ccoenen]

I realize this may potentially be a ton of work. But given the second post in this issue, I felt I should at least ask.

[lissyx]

It's okay to ask :). Anyone willing to contribute to that is welcome !
