Description

#351 enabled the building and publishing of wheels for x86 and x64 based Windows systems. At the time of that PR, ARM for Windows was early in adoption. Support was just added for it as of Python 3.11 and tooling hasn't caught up with it yet. maturin technically supports it, but cross-compilation to it is non-trivial, and there are no ARM based Windows runners on GitHub yet (presumably because there is no ARM for Windows server yet). Eventually, if Windows for ARM gains significant marketshare, and becomes more broadly supported in the Python ecosystem we should revisit the issue and try to get wheels out for it.

Research direction

Start by reviewing issue #351 and the Windows wheel build and publishing setup it introduced. Check whether maturin and available GitHub runners now support Windows ARM; the work is done when ARM Windows wheels can be built and published reliably.
