I'm not saying Windows is special. I tried to use DMD and Visual Studio
together, it didn't work that well. I did not use the DMD installation,
I already had DMD installed (using DVM). I did not know the exact
paths/environment variables to use for DMD to find the Visual Studio
tool chain. I also recall finding it very difficult to find the download
for the SDK, it was not included in the Visual Studio installation I used.
I did not have these problems on macOS, but perhaps that's just me, I'm
not a Windows developer.
