`yarn build` does not work for windows about oclif HOT 6 CLOSED

rm has been available on versions of windows I've been using. I'm not sure when it was added but it seems to come standard now on the modern.ie images at least so I assume it's standard on all current windows releases. What version of windows are you on? I tried to track down when exactly rm was added but wasn't able to figure that out

Sorry for the late answer! I was using it on a Windows 10 with Powershell. Do you need more specific versions or informations?

That would be helpful if you have the versions

PowerShell has rm as alias for Remove-Item, but this alias don't accept another *unix parameters.

Maybe this is the problem.

Hey, I've just discovered oclif - love it ❤️

To the topic: Quick workaround is to install rimraf and substitute in npm script rm -rf lib to rimraf lib .

In windows cmd shell (that I, and I suposse lot's of ppl is using instead of powershell) the rm -rf alias is rmdir \s or rd \s. Imo it's not that big of an Issue, but it would be good ux to make no-config oclif experience platform-agnostoic.

btw. To run the cli in windows cmd I need to type .\bin\run instead of ./bin/run. Maybe it's worth adding tiny section Windows in the README and consider it closed?

I wonder if it's something that I have installed on my machine that makes it work—maybe git for windows or something. I'd accept a pr to use del-cli or rimraf in the generator but only if process.platform === 'win32'. I'd like to keep the configuration as simple as possible on unix.
