I am having some issues running hugo for development on my windows machine. Code compiles and runs just fine on ubuntu. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Please see specific details below.

PS C:\Users\jorda\Documents\Github\jordan-cook-portfolio-v2> hugo version

On your windows system I’m pretty sure you missed a few steps:

https://github.com/hugo-toha/toha?tab=readme-ov-file#usage

On Windows 11, I did this and it worked great:

hugo new site foo
cd foo
hugo mod init foo

Then add this to your site’s config.toml file:

[module]
[[module.imports]]
path = 'github.com/hugo-toha/toha/v4'

Then the remaining steps:

hugo mod tidy
hugo mod npm pack
npm install
hugo server

I’m pretty sure you missed hugo mod npm pack and npm install.
