Hi Michael, This looks amazing! Last time I built for Windows was ~16 months ago ... It was a horrible mess of dependencies installations in Cygwin & really really slow process.
Does this change anything ? Or do I still need Cygwin + all the dependencies in order to build it on Windows? I saw an awesome project to help create a Visual-Studio 2013 project, but I am guessing that's just for editing & symbols, not for building nativly on Windows, right ?
