Will it work on Windows?

Yes, it runs on Windows

You'll build it yourself with JDK.

Supported devices from the README: Device & power notes

Wi‑Fi SSID / LAN↔WAN switch needs background location. Android redacts the SSID for a background reader unless "Allow all the time" is granted (plus location services on). Without it the SSID reads as unknown → DRADIS picks the WAN broker.
WAN broker must be reachable off‑LAN. A private address like 192.168.0.252 only works on the home network. For the WAN broker, use a public IP / DDNS hostname (with router port forwarding) or a cloud broker, ideally over TLS.
Keep it connected (especially Samsung / One UI): keep Keep connected while asleep on, grant Ignore battery optimisation, set the app to Unrestricted battery usage, and add it to "Never sleeping apps" (and not "Deep sleeping apps"). In deep Doze the OS can still drop the socket; DRADIS reconnects within ~20 s once it can.
MIUI / Xiaomi: also enable Autostart, because RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED alone is not honoured there.

From the README: Installation

Download the latest dradis-<version>.apk from the Releases page.
Open it on the phone and allow Install unknown apps for your browser / file manager when prompted.
Launch Dradis. It asks for notification permission (Android 13+) and starts the foreground service.
Open Settings, fill in the device name, the broker(s) and your home Wi‑Fi SSIDs, then tap Save settings.
On the Status tab, grant the permissions in this order:
1. Grant SMS / Location / Camera / Notifications (the runtime group, which also includes physical activity for the step sensors). If SMS can't be allowed, see SMS permission is grayed out.
2. Allow background location → choose "Allow all the time".
3. Do‑Not‑Disturb access (lets find‑my‑phone ring through DND).
4. Ignore battery optimisation.
Check that the Status tab shows CONNECTED and the expected broker (LAN/WAN).

Release APKs are signed with one release key, so newer releases install over older ones in place.
