Thanks for opening a PR. As with most large changes like this, it's best to discuss with the team here first. Unfortunately, we're not going to be able to accept this PR. Windows users are encouraged to use WSL to keep in line with our chosen tooling.

From what I understand @lukastaegert seems to have accepted such a change at #1530 (comment)?

Unfortunately WSL does not currently work on my computer, so I can only develop in this way.

[shellscape]

That is unfortunate.

One of the things you're changing throughout the repository is making our symlinked tsconfig.json files into actual copies. That's not the way this repo is setup (nor is it the way I setup any monorepo that I manage). Your machine not supporting symlinks indicates a deeper issue.

At this time I'm not willing to completely change the dynamic for how the plugins in the workspace interact the processes we've had in place for years. We've had many users contribute that use Windows. I'm sorry that WSL doesn't work on your computer, I would recommend solving that first.

I'm not sure if this is something Windows doesn't support, others have mentioned this.

Thanks for your reply, I see.

I am sorry I made it seem that way, I should have said that for tooling questions in this repo, @shellscape is the final instance to consult as he set things up and maintains them.
