Adding Windows compatibility would round out the 3 leading OS's and would make the app available to more people.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing platform-specific code and CMakeLists.txt to identify the macOS and Linux build actions that need Windows equivalents. Trace where platform macros are already used, then verify that the application configures and builds on Windows and that the platform-specific calls work there.
