Description

this is a catchall issue for windows bugs/quirks. @shrayasr, calling on your help for this. there are 2 major touchpoints to make sure this thing works for windows. bin/ratpack, and src/app.js. further, I've marked possible areas to check with //todo - windows specifically stuff to do with paths. a lot of it should 'work', but who knows :P

your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to make this work on windows :)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the two main touchpoints: bin/ratpack and src/app.js for Windows path issues. Check all TODO comments marked with 'todo windows' and ensure cross platform path handling using path module or slash package. Test on a Windows environment.
