Using HipHop VM on windows

I just read an article and learned about the HHVM which is built on the lines of JVM for Java. I went ahead and tried searching on the web, but found only articles about installing it on Ubuntu build 12 version.

I have been using a WAMP stack and would like to know if I can use the HHVM for any of my application. Also,I would like to understand if the HHVM can be integrated with our existing applications. Earlier an article suggested HipHop was what FB wrote to enhance their performance based on their requirements,and it may not suit yours. Is the same case with HHVM?

At present, HHVM does not support Windows. The HHVM team probably will not be adding Windows support in 2013, though they might pursue it at some point in the future. The team gladly accepts code contributions from developers who want to improve HHVM's support for different platforms at https://github.com/facebook/hiphop-php . You can also open a github issue at https://github.com/facebook/hiphop-php/issues to ask about Windows support.

Just as an update, since this is still popular - there is an official compiling/installation guide here at their Wiki for windows.

Full installation run-through guide.
