I'm not saying Windows is special. I tried to use DMD and

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.
This kind of stuff would need to be carefully written down with
an eye for improving the experience. Any volunteers? Please
help, thanks! -- Andrei
It's in the install wiki
https://wiki.dlang.org/Installing_DMD
the problem (that I mentioned above) is that you have to know
where to go to find it. It needs more prominence on the dlang
site.
