Q: contributing to the project from windows

[Dubes]

I am trying to contribute but it is more convenient for me to use a windows machine. However, many commands don't run. for e.x. npm run create-react-app fails as it tries to treat tasks as an npm module and not a directory where scripts can be found. npm run format fails as well. I also tried with git bash.

I am wondering if any contributors use a windows machine and if they have any tips they can share.

Other details
Windows 10
Node: v6.9.1
npm: 4.6.1

We know this is a pain point, and we would love pull requests that make the development better on Windows machines.

npm run format should be an easy fix; you might need to switch from apostrophes to quotes or vice versa.

I will try to check if I can improve something there

@Dubes @Timer Once this PR #2309 is merged Windows users will be able to contribute.
I've been using tasks/cra.js from that PR on my Windows 10 machine and it's been working fine.

Closing as it has been aggregated in #2855
