I have try to buil:d from source with a git clone and building on a linux to target os

export GOOS=windows
export GOARCH=386
(cd webui && npm i && npm run build)
(cd cmd/backrest && go build .)

But i get this error ../../webui/webuiwin.go:12:12: pattern dist-windows/*: no matching files found

Sorry -- the docs you followed are out of date for windows. You'll want to run 

GOOS=windows go generate ./...
GOOS=windows go build <backrest bin>

thanks, i have successfully build 32 bits binary for windows on a debian 12 like this:

<install go>
<git clone backrest>
go install github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser@latest
apt install -y protobuf-compiler nodejs npm
go install google.golang.org/grpc/cmd/protoc-gen-go-grpc@latest
go install github.com/bufbuild/buf/cmd/buf@v1.27.2
go install github.com/fullstorydev/grpcurl/cmd/grpcurl@latest
go install google.golang.org/protobuf/cmd/protoc-gen-go@latest
go install connectrpc.com/connect/cmd/protoc-gen-connect-go@latest
npm install -g @bufbuild/protoc-gen-es @connectrpc/protoc-gen-connect-es
GOOS=windows GOARCH=386 go generate ./...
GOOS=windows GOARCH=386 go build ./cmd/backrest/backrest.go

Thanks for giving that a go and documenting what worked. I think for the time being, this will probably remain a project that needs building from source for 32-bit windows just because of the rarity of the deployment and given that Windows 11 will deprecate 32 bit support in the relatively near term.

Happy to re-evaluate if enough people come back and let me know this is a problem :) .
