Windows should work since WebGPU can target DirectX or Vulkan and it should be possible to build in WSL.

However I was planning to announce next week after I've had a chance to test with my Windows-using colleagues and this thread came early, so it's possible we'll run into some hiccups.

I would say most people would not consider WSL to be "Windows".

Put it this way: Can I build an executable using this, that I could confidently give to a Windows user who has never heard of WSL?

Fair enough - I don't think there's any hard blockers to doing this, but to get the same QoL we'll want to add a dawn dll to the available prebuilt binaries and adjust the download script.

Will look into this in the coming weeks (or if anyone is up for contributing let us know).
