Chatting with @robmarcer - notes:
Lots of our customers use Windows, often say they can't use "Linux"
If they can't use a Linux distro, is an approach with docker-ce via WSL possible for them? Same question for a potential VM solution with Linux on top of Windows HyperV.
Given the install instructions available at https://flowfuse.com/docs/install/introduction/ go form a clean Windows image and install and setup FlowFuse.
Windows represents a very low portion (2%) of our running FlowFuse EE instances, however, having spoken to our Sales/Customer team, it is the most highly requested operating system. We currently take a strong position to dissuading users from Windows, and steering towards Linux. This is creating bottlenecks internally in our customer's organisations as they then need permission from IT departments, etc. in order to setup Linux VMs and environments.
The conclusion from Rob (notes in a comment below) was that "If we can get FlowFuse easy to get up and running on Windows, our customers would use it"
