TLDR; no, libuv doesn't work in Cygwin just yet, see at the bottom.

Requirements

I tested using the master branch (9d3449852bd35c9283948186d0259c1bf73b8579 or later)

I installed the following in the cygwin setup

• gcc-c++ make cmake pkg-config libtool

Check the pull request for the changes and the main issue for discussion. If you run into trouble check the Known Errors section at the end, or drop me a comment.

Requirements

• MSVC 2015, cl should report > 19.*
• Python 2 (required by libuv to get gyp) - python 3 will not work, see the issue
• Git (required by libuv to get gyp)
• libintl
• You might need the Windows 10 SDK to be installed (unverified, please drop me a comment in #810, specially if you are in Windows8 or lower.)

Before you start you need a Mingw-w64 toolchain for Linux, try installing the mingw-w64 package (Ubuntu, Suse, Fedora?) or get it from the Mingw-w64 website.

Build dependencies

$ mkdir deps-mingw
$ cd deps-mingw
$ cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/mingw32-w64-cross-travis.toolchain.cmake ../third-party/
$ make
$ cd ..
