Steps on how to get windows set up properly for the node bindings

install git

E.g via https://git-scm.com/download/win

install node

Download and install v16 from https://nodejs.org/en/

install rust

Download and run rust-init.exe from https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install

configure node for native addons

$ npm i node-gyp -g
$ npm i windows-build-tools -g

windows-build-tools will install Visual Studio 2017 by default and should not mess with existing installations of Visual Studio C++.

get the code

$ mkdir -p src/deltachat
$ cd src/deltachat
$ git clone https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-node

build the code

$ cd src/deltachat/deltachat-node
$ npm install
