Description

Hi,

Does mdflow work on a Windows machine? I've been exploring it for a couple of days, found it interesting and wanted to do an actual hands-on, but initially I encountered "bun is not recognised as an internal or external command...".
Later, even after setting up bun locally, when trying to execute on powershell "mdflow" or "mdflow --version", getting error:
"mdflow: The term 'mdflow' is not recognised as a name of a cmdlet, function script, or operable program. Check the spelling of teh name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.".

JFYI, I have bun, npm, other packages configured in system environment variables.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported mdflow and mdflow --version commands in PowerShell after installing Bun and configuring the environment variables. The issue names no source files or tests, so first locate the CLI entry point and its installation or executable setup. Done means the supported Windows behavior is established and the commands work or the limitation is documented.
