BuildKit has experimental support for Windows containers (WCOW) as of version 0.13.
This section walks you through the steps for trying it out.
We appreciate any feedback you submit by [opening an issue here](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/issues/new), especially `buildkitd.exe`.

### Known limitations

- BuildKit on Windows currently only supports the `containerd` worker.
Support for non-OCI workers is tracked in [moby/buildkit#4836](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/issues/4836).
For information about open bugs and limitations related to BuildKit on Windows,
see [GitHub issues](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3Aarea%2Fwindows-wcow).
