Currently one needs to manually build all dependent C++ libraries (libuv, snappy, boost, libxml2, libiconv, gtest etc.) and add them to their Visual Studio installation.

Efforts shall be made to automate the build of the dependent libraries for Windows and include them directly into the build process so that no manual dependency management is needed any more.

This could be done through Visual Studio's packet manager nuget, through git submodules of needed libraries or a combination of both.
