Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating how gh-classroom determines supported platforms and how its Windows binaries are built; done means the extension installs and runs on windows-amd64 without the unsupported-platform message.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hi all, I tried installing the extension on my Windows computer and received this message.

gh-classroom unsupported for windows-amd64.

I only got it working by using Windows Subsystem Linux. I would love to know why gh-classroom isn't supported on Windows AMD64.

Thanks,
anhnlh
