There is the bundled version and there is the source code version. Both are on the release page. The source code version is generated by GitHub, which I then download and add the node_modules folder to. This becomes the bundled version. I explain how to use the bundled version in the readme as well.
Yes, start.cmd can be used to run TiddlyServer on Windows.
