Building on Windows with Microsoft Visual C++
Building on Windows with the Visual Studio IDE
--------------------------------------
Download and install some version of [Microsoft Visual Studio](https://www.visualstudio.com/) (At the time of writing, MSVS Community 2022) with **C++ support**.
You'll have to install both [Python 3](https://www.python.org/downloads/) and [Rust](https://rustup.rs/) as well.
Make sure the MSVC build tools, C++ CMake-Tools and the latest Windows SDK version appropriate to your windows version are selected in the installer.
Now open up your Project folder, Visual Studio should automatically detect and configure your project using CMake.
On your tools hotbar next to the triangular "Run" Button, you can now select what you want to start (e.g game-client or game-server) and build it.
Building on Windows with standalone MSVC build tools
