Description

Problem

We have a toolchain that we develop internally and have need for NodeJS libraries compiled for Windows.

Solution

I hate to be "that (weird) guy," but it would be really nice if there were NodeJS images for Windows

Alternatives to Consider

Currently, we're using nvm-windows to manage NodeJS installations on our Windows build servers, but this can be cumbersome, as we can only run one CI job per machine at a time. to ensure that jobs don't need conflicting versions of NodeJS.
