Issue TIMOB-23670: Windows: Install C++ Build Tools for Windows using npm
We recently found [C++ build tools installer for Windows using npm|https://github.com/felixrieseberg/windows-build-tools]. Does this mean it may be possible to setup dev enrivonment for Windows Phone without requesting Visual Studio installation? Install C++ Build Tools for Windows using npm https://github.com/felixrieseberg/windows-build-tools Per dev thread: {quote} It's possible we may be able to install the pieces without Visual Studio. This seems to install the C++ build tools and python. We'd also need the SDKs/emulators It may be useful to open a ticket looking into this. I see we can get the Windows Standalone SDK for Win 10 here: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=698771 And emulator here: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=698769 That'd be waaaay easier/faster if we could just grab these exes and run them for the user and it magically worked.... Visual Studio install is a pain in the ass. Of course it'd highlight the issues in setting up Win 10 emulators for dev mode that VS magically does for you. {quote}
