Native Windows support?

[HeWhoHeWho]

Is there a plan for native Windows support that allows Windows user to install chDB via pip install in the near future? I'm unable to use chDB on my Windows due to employer's blocking of WSL install.

Hi, @HeWhoHeWho
It's hard to say. As you know, chDB is built on ClickHouse, while ClickHouse does not support compilation on the Windows platform.

I understand. I also tried reaching out to ClickHouse 2 weeks ago but all I got was no response so far.
Wish it comes to Windows natively soon so I have better options at work.

From ClickHouse offical repo side, most user just run ClickHouse as a server. Windows Server is very rare in the area.
From chDB side, about 2.6% user are writing and running code on Windows.

Talked with some guy ever tried to make ClickHouse compile and run on Windows and gave up finally. It's huge work to do.
