Hi,

i have found these instructions:

moby/moby/blob/master/docs/contributing/software-req-win.md

### Build and test Moby on Windows

This page explains how to get the software you need to build, test, and run the
Moby source code for Windows and setup the required software and services:

- Windows containers
- GitHub account
- Git

## Prerequisites

### 1. Windows Server 2016 or Windows 10 with all Windows updates applied

The major build number must be at least 14393. This can be confirmed, for example,
by running the following from an elevated PowerShell prompt - this sample output
is from a fully up to date machine as at mid-November 2016:


    PS C:\> $(gin).WindowsBuildLabEx
    14393.447.amd64fre.rs1_release_inmarket.161102-0100

This file has been truncated. show original

But how do I build it without having a dockerd up and running in windows?
