I am looking using Garage for Open Science project and the users tend to run windows or mac.

I have an Intel Mac, and soon a Windows 10 intel. So am happy to help with any testing.

I am a golang coder and not rust.

I pushed up a profile for Garage into Cyberduck weeks ago, once you have garage exposed via HTTPS1, this takes moments to enable:

https://docs.cyberduck.io/protocols/s3/garage/

You shouldn't be running garage on either of these platforms. Instead, you should be deploying it onto a fleet of Linux servers and then using a client, for example: Cyberduck to interface with the S3 API from Windows/Mac clients.

Currently we are shipping builds for different CPU architectures through cross compiling, by using NixOS tools. Cross compiling to macOS is not possible today, but at least I was able to compile Garage for macOS arm64 (thanks to the GCC Compilation Farm). I tried to cross compile to Windows but it failed, and I had not enough time to debug it. If you are able to integrate cross compilation from Linux to your desired target in Garage's nixos build, we could definitively ship a binary for your platform.
