    Do we need all the individual components from the "Desktop development with C++" workload when building with MSVC?

    No, we don't. The default ones are just enough.

    Correct me if i'm mistaken, but the Visual Studio Build Tools component, when following the provided link, is only available at the bottom of the page and hidden behind a drop down menu titled Tools for Visual Studio. Perhaps mention this here so that someone doesn't give up and end up downloading Visual Studio 2022 in frustration of not finding the target download.

    That's correct. Mind suggesting a better wording aligned with this repo's approach to documenting the use of third-party tools?
