About preCICE on Windows, and couple Fluent and Abaqus

Is preCICE for me?

@yang_liu there is still no official support for native Windows builds. This is now low on our priorities since:

  1. Many users that just had Windows systems now use WSL to run Linux from Windows
  2. There is a community-maintained MSYS2 package that builds preCICE on Windows using the MinGW compiler stack: preCICE and mingw packages
  3. Even if we make preCICE work natively on Windows, many of the simulation codes we couple to don’t work on Windows.

In any case, contributions are very welcome (see the open issue in the first post).
