A Windows build is explicitly not in the plans, at least today, from what I've seen.

Yeah even if it built, a windows shell needs to do different things. I’ve had some success running it in msys2 though: https://evil.link/2022/03/31/using-fish-shell-on-windows/

Ironically the RIIR project makes this more difficult; we lost support for Cygwin altogether and I think the msys2 stuff would need to be re-explored if it even remains possible.
