Is there a plan to support Windows? #1640

Open achalpandeyy opened 1 year ago

achalpandeyy commented 1 year ago

I have noticed that the README states Linux as the only compatible platform. https://github.com/openai/triton#compatibility

Some people in the past have managed to compile on Windows https://github.com/openai/triton/issues/871 (there is even a really old PR for Windows support https://github.com/openai/triton/pull/24). But still going by the README, I suppose something changed and Triton doesn't support Windows anymore? I haven't tried to compile it myself yet.

I'm interested in the development of this repository but my main OS is Windows. I'm aware that I can probably use WSL2 but still I would prefer to run it on Windows natively. So my question is: is there a plan to officially support Windows? If so, I can help.

In https://github.com/triton-lang/triton/pull/4045 Windows support was declined with "we don't have the bandwidth to commit to supporting Windows at this time".

That's disappointing to hear

I can't imagine any possible feature that'd be more important than this such that "there isn't enough bandwidth".

you have bandwidth money and manpower to support Windows

there are even individual developers published pre-compiled wheels for windows

this is ridiculous

7 months old. Yeah that's bound to be able to handle all the latest models.

that is not the point though. point is OpenAI has all the resources on earth to make triton work on windows natively
