None of the project's Makefile have been written specifically with Windows in mind. They might work under cygwin, but we don't develop or test in this environment. Personally for Windows development I use a hybrid approach. I simply run `go build` and `go test -v` for building and testing the Go Beat code. And I use a Linux VM for running the various make commands for doing things like generating fields.yml (though this could be done on Windows by directly invoking the python command the makefile uses). ---
