[DVPS] Windows compatility

[puremana]

Not sure if you wanted this in master, but I figured windows compatibility for master needs to happen at some point

Feel free to decline

I'm reluctant to pull in these changes because at that point it makes the project Windows-specific only and devs will have to edit the Gemfile to do work.

I need to investigate handling different OS's, and installing separate gems depending on that.

Notes to self:

Made a change, checking for windows in gemfile using if (/cygwin|mswin|mingw|bccwin|wince|emx/ =~ RUBY_PLATFORM) != nil

should work if we aren't using jruby. Problem is there are always going to be different gemfile.lock files being committed from windows and other developers

let me know what you think

Maybe I should Dockerize this?

I tried to set up on a different Windows machine than I originally created this branch off of. I keep running into new issues that I didn't run into on my original Windows machine.

Probably less work for both myself and future/current devs, honestly

Alternatively, I don't see there being new gems added often; maybe we can .gitignore the Gemfile and Gemfile.lock and just have separate files for different environments.

That's another solution, up to you man
