Not as easy as in GNU/Linux, but fairly good nonetheless. The "problem"
Emacs has on Windows is external dependencies. Tools such as `grep' are
always intalled on a GNU/Linux box, but you do have to install them
yourself on Windows. Those tools are not hard requirements for a working
Emacs, though.

Others mentioned Cygwin and IMHO it is the wrong solution. MSYS2 is
better because it doesn't pretend that Windows is a POSIX system.
