**Tell us about your request**
Support for windows version of amazon-ecs-local-container-endpoints to test the windows containers locally.

**Which service(s) is this request for?**
This could be Fargate, ECS

**Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?**
Currently “Locally Testing Containers with Amazon ECS Local Endpoints” is only compatible with “linux containers” running on both Linux and Windows docker platform. Need to have the amazon-ecs-local-container-endpoints for Windows containers to test it locally.

Research direction

Start with the linked amazon-ecs-local-container-endpoints project and the AWS blog describing local ECS endpoint testing. Investigate how the project currently supports Linux containers and identify the scope needed for Windows containers on the Docker platform; done means Windows containers can be tested locally with the ECS local endpoints.
