Hi @Adirio,
What is expected here? Only add in the readme here that users might be able to try out it in a win SO with https://www.cygwin.com/ ?
No, you are actually able to build kubebuilder with Windows without cygwin, you do need to install make to run the makefile though. make is pre-installed in most systems but not in Windows. It is just one of the pieces needed to achieve full windows compatibility, Makefiles (both the kubebuilder one and the scaffolded one) still need to be tweaked as there are still some Unix-only commands.
In the bug triage meeting, we spoke about to support windows officially and we all agreed that it would be nice. However, we would need help from the community to achieve this goal. More info: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubebuilder/issues/1405#issuecomment-736807564
