It would be great to have core support for windows, assuming it has git bash or similar, with Appveyor CI keeping it from breaking.

Research direction
The issue requests adding documentation and tests for Windows (WSL2) support. Review the existing documentation structure in the repository, particularly the installation guide and any platform specific sections. Examine the current CI configuration (Appveyor) and previous attempts or discussions in the comments. The issue is stale with no recent activity, so it may require re evaluating the scope and feasibility. Look for any linked PRs or references to Windows support in other issues.
