Desired Behavior

legit-code should work seamlessly on Windows 10 and 11.

Requirements

• Add SMB server for mounting logic to Windows
• Handle Windows path separators and drive letters
• Test on Windows 10 and 11
• Update documentation for Windows users
• Handle Windows-specific permissions and security
• Add CI/CD for Windows testing

Technical Notes

The main challenges:

• Windows doesn't natively support NFS client - we got to use smb instead
• Path separators (\ vs /)
• Case-insensitive file system
• Different process spawning behavior
