Description
As we develop this examples repository, we should consider that Makefiles are not natively supported on Windows. While many developers use WSL, Git Bash, or install Make separately, native Windows support matters for a samples repository that targets the broader TypeScript developer community.
I know we have discussed this topic internally and the Make/CDK combination is a temporary fix until more long-term solutions are developed.
I am creating this issue to touch base before we make this repository public to document how are we moving forward with this.
Use case
N/A
Alternatives considered
The AgentCore CLI should be the best alternative to launch agents on Windows. However, if it is not available before going public, we should consider the following for Windows users:
- Using npm scripts for standard tasks - direct replacement to Makefile
- Continue use CloudFormation/CDK for associated resources.
