Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 Build Tools full version standalone offline installer for Windows. These tools help you automate creating a software product, including compiling the source code, packaging, testing, deployment, and creating documentation. This is the installer of the build tools from Microsoft (i.e., this is all that is needed to build projects but without a development environment, without an IDE). If you need a development environment, then install this. If you only need a C ++ compiler, then instead of this distribution, you can limit yourself to a more compact distribution.
More specifically, unlike the entire studio, this installer does not include a graphical interface (IDE) component, and, accordingly, you cannot install a visual development environment through the Build Tools edition. Through such a limitation, an attempt is made to reduce the weight of the installer and reduce the size and impact on Windows.
