The tools are required by the `tree-sitter` command line tool which is used by the `nvim-treesitter` plugin. This is the recommended way for a typical Windows install outside of _MSYS2_ , _Git Bash_, etc.

The below installs the base build tools and the [_Microsoft_](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/workload-component-id-vs-build-tools?view=visualstudio) recommended _Visual C_ workload and components. Installing it this way is recommended by the _Chocolatey_ package maintainer and allows for easier upgrades, etc. The dependency requires the compiler ( e.g. `cl.exe` ) and header files like `stdlib.h` in the _Windows_ SDK.
If you already are a _Visual Studio_ user with _C_ workloads, you may not require the build tools. You can check your installation with the below to make sure the applicable workload and components are available. It should output something like _Visual Studio Community_ or _Microsoft Visual Studio Build Tools_. If you don't receive any output and you aren't using preview builds, etc, you may need to install the tools.
If you do not have the `vswhere.exe` binary in that location you can download the [`release`](https://github.com/microsoft/vswhere) directly. It is available too with `choco install vswhere -y`.

The below will install the minimum required for a successful config. If one wants to upgrade or add additional components, it may be necessary to install the `visualstudio2026-workload-vctools` later or use the _Visual Studio Installer_.
