I’d like to develop a dashboard (using Go) that controls LXD; however, it seems that LXD only works on Linux so I can’t test to see if the commands are really working as intended.
Is there any way to develop this on Windows? Or do I really need to have linux os installed?

You will be using the LXD REST API, therefore there should be no restriction in implementing it on Windows,
# REST API
All communication between Incus and its clients happens using a RESTful API over HTTP.
This API is encapsulated over either TLS (for remote operations) or a Unix socket (for local operations).
See {ref}`authentication` for information about how to access the API remotely.
```{tip}
- For examples on how the API is used, run any command of the Incus client ([`incus`](incus.md)) with the `--debug` flag.
The debug information displays the API calls and the return values.
- For quickly querying the API, the Incus client provides a [`incus query`](incus_query.md) command.
```
## API versioning
The list of supported major API versions can be retrieved using `GET /`.
The reason for a major API bump is if the API breaks backward compatibility.
