Description
Adding a windows build as in #309 is not currently possible because windows-latest does not support running linux-based images (cf. https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/1143). The same seems to be true for CircleCI (see https://circleci.com/docs/using-windows/#known-issues-and-limitations) and Travis (see https://travis-ci.community/t/hyper-v-support-in-windows/2605/3). Once it is feasible, running automated tests could help address #303, #108, #101, and #99.
