## Windows

Windows releases are no longer published as of [v5.5.0](https://github.com/aspect-build/aspect-cli/releases/tag/5.5.0).
This is due to a new dependency on [go-tree-sitter](https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-go)
which has a CGO dependency that makes cross compiling to Windows difficult.

To produce Windows releases will require some engineering work to resolve the CGO cross compilation issues.
Please let us know if you require a Windows Aspect CLI binary.
In the meantime, we recommend using WSL2 on Windows.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Windows releases for Aspect CLI standard will be available soon. In the meantime, please use Aspect CLI OSS releases on Windows.
