Description

Getting lots of requests for windows support in comments on the video.

Node program should work fine on windows, but needs testing, and it might be helpful to setup CI to build it as a standalone package for them.

This is a bit complicated because MIDI uses native modules, and those generally have issues being pre-compiled for windows on other platforms, but maybe I can build it in CI.

Research direction

Start by locating the Node program, its MIDI native-module configuration, and any existing CI setup. Test the program on Windows and investigate whether CI can build a standalone Windows package despite native-module constraints. Done should mean Windows support is verified and the agreed CI packaging result is documented.
