Hi, Lots of project such as node.js or neovim are using libuv (https://github.com/libuv/libuv) which is incompatible with Cygwin. I've spent some time trying to build it, but I get issues with pthread.
The wonderful Neovim project has several opened issues regarding the portability of libuv (https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/873) It seems Windows are missing some POSIX system calls that Cygwin cannot emulate possibly regarding pthread. Unfortunately I did not find any trustable information about the feasibility to build libuv on Cygwin one day. I'll take a chance to get some information about this here...
