node-waf is a wrapper around the build system waf to simplify building of native C++ extensions for node.js. As far as I know there's not yet a replacement for windows.

But I know that some people managed to build native extensions with Vistual Studio instead.

This repository contains a windows build for contextify, needed for jsdom. Maybe you can look at how it is built and adapt that.
