gcc - Install Visual C++ Compiler on Windows without installing whole Visual Studio -
note question can duplicate of this or this question.
but please don't close duplicate without reading entire question.
i'm trying install npm module browsersync on windows, , reading documentation, found module uses node-gyp
requires c++ compiler on windows build native extension. , leads installation of visual studio (community edition do). after going through above linked questions (which noted duplicates of current question), found windows sdk used ship c++ compiler visual studio required have c++ compiler.
so concern is, need download , install hefty 6 gb vs community edition c++ compiler build browsersync
on windows? or there way via gcc windows?
p.s. earlier faced similar situation installing node-oracledb.
thanks.
