Hi, thanks a lot for creating this great package!. Is there an expected timeline for the Windows release? Thanks!

Hi, since Tensorflow does currently not support Windows, we currently have no plans for a Windows release. However, our C++ library Yggdrasil Decision Forests that TF-DF is based on can be built on Windows to train and serve TF-DF models.

@rstz What do you mean by "Tensorflow does currently not support Windows"?
You can install CPU version of the package just fine on Windows. Yeah, if you need GPU support (as you'd normally would for training), you'd have to install it on WSL machine, but if you need to inference some light model, or mess with tensor operations - it's perfectly fine to do that on CPU-based package.
Hell, I don't even need TFDF, but TFJS converter that I use thinks otherwise, as it's listed as a dependency on versions above 3.18.

That's not a great situation, thank you for letting us know. Reopening this and investigating. If anyone manages to compile TF-DF on Windows, feel free to let me know
