I intended to use the Atom editor and - according to the description in other threads and[this guide](https://atom.io/packages/particle-dev) created the prerequisites for Windows 10 64bit with GitHub Desktop and Visual Studio Community 2017 with .Net Framework 4.7.x. However, I get the following error: > npm ERR! serialport@4.0.1 install: `node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build` > npm ERR! Exit status 1 > npm ERR! > npm ERR! Failed at the serialport@4.0.1 install script 'node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build'. > npm ERR! Make sure you have the latest version of node.js and npm installed. > npm ERR!

Downloaded Node.Js v6.10.3 LTS for Windows which installs npm@3.10.10. After Reboot I checked Atom to install particle-dev again: but fails again. Begin Snip: ``` > serialport@4.0.1 install C:\Users\Ingo\AppData\Local\Temp\apm-install-dir-117419-14028-lileqw.avnda8xgvi\node_modules\particle-dev\node_modules\serialport > node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build Die Projekte in dieser Projektmappe werden nacheinander erstellt. Um eine parallele Erstellung zu erm�glichen, m�ssen Sie den Schalter "/m" hinzuf�gen. MSBUILD : error MSB3428: Die Visual C++-Komponente "VCBuild.exe" konnte nicht geladen werden. Um dieses Problem zu beheben, installieren Sie entweder 1) .NET Framework 2.0 SDK oder 2) Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 oder 3) f�gen Sie den Speicherort der Komponente zum Systempfad hinzu, falls er vom Standardspeicherort abweicht.

This external thread helps: [https://github.com/spark/particle-dev/issues/151](https://github.com/spark/particle-dev/issues/151) to solve the node-gyp dependencies used the following: On Windows: Option 1: Install all the required tools and configurations using Microsoft’s windows-build-tools using **npm install --global --production windows-build-tools** from an elevated PowerShell or CMD.exe ( **run as Administrator** ). ---
