            @dineshsalunke For running from source you can use prebuilt bundle without Docker a) https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Windows

              @dineshsalunke For building Docker image you should dual boot to Ubuntu 20.04 64bit, because Linux filesystem is much faster than Windows filesystem. I do build bundle on Linux without Docker. Well, if you wait long enough, Docker build on Windows does finish, but it's much faster to build on Linux

                Or alternatively, build at some cloud server like DigitalOcean, AWS, Azure etc on Ubuntu 20.04 64bit

                  @dineshsalunke Wekan is about 20k-60k files of Javascript files, so filesystem performance makes significant difference. And also do use SSD or NVME disk, faster is better.

                    Actually it's 50k files. Building on Linux with NVME disk takes about 11 minutes, on fast server.

                                        I thing - yes. It would be good. How to understand some parts of wekan is not always completely clear and it can be pity.
