+## Building dopewars on Windows
+
+(This is experimental.)
+
+dopewars is built for Windows via cross-compilation on Linux using the
+MinGW tools. See the `mingw` subdirectory for a suitable `Dockerfile` to set up
+a [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) or [Podman](https://podman.io/)
+compilation environment.
+
+Once in the environment, build dopewars for 64-bit Windows with
+
+    ./configure --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --enable-nativewin32 && make
+
+For 32-bit Windows, use
+
+    ./configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32 --enable-nativewin32 && make
+
+In order for curl connections to the metaserver to work, copy
+`/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt` from the Docker/Podman environment to
+the same directory as `dopewars.exe`.
+
+
 ## Windows installer
 
 This directory contains the code for a simple Windows install/uninstall
