Plus an adze for extra good luck? Imagine a town where every wall is a window
You already can't have two adjacent windows by my idea but not sure if that is implementable. I do agree windows must have some drawbacks but the glass making part of it is already a bit difficult.
Ok you know the multipoint locks on the glass panes to make them close? yeah we need something for that too: a bowl of gold flakes since they're yellow most of the time

Maybe a log could be sawed into boards, then boards sawed into studs. Glass seems easy. Similar to how we flatten paper, we could drop hot blown glass onto a flat stone and flatten it with another stone. So studs + glass + rope = window?
Edit: Easy as in easy to come up with an idea, not as in "making glass is easy."

Why the flat stone for the hot blown glass thing? Why not a metal dish or mold?

Because those are items and processes that already exist in the game. Why make a metal mold just for glass windows? If we're going to complicate it, let's implement tin, melt it, drop hot glass on it and make float glass.
The first glass windows were not made by pouring. They were blown, then flattened.

The difficulty says extremely hard. After reading the crafting procedure, I wouldn't call it extreme. But I look forward to trying it myself (yes, I haven't made glass so I'm probably wrong). A window is a nice-to-have, quality of life item. So I feel it shouldn't be too easy to make.
Perhaps there should be a glassless version that is easier to make but drops the temperature of your building slightly.

Yeah we could have a glassless version for the aesthetics, what do you think it should be like? It could be covered in wood or just a hole in the wall

Early windows used paper or cloth. I think paper windows really could do the trick.

I didn't know that, how was the paper cover made? Was it one large paper appended to the window to cover it?

I think they were smaller sheets that fit into several frames inside the larger frame. The paper was greased to reduce light scattering. So to make a paper window cost effective, I would suggest two sheets of piled paper + grease from goose + studs (which I proposed earlier.).

Sounds good to me but the problem of someone unevenly placing them really gives me the shakes

Worse than the people who install every wall facing the wrong direction?

Imagine every wall facing the wrong direction AND with uneven window spacing, jeezus
