Anyone with the same issue?

[UniqueMint]

Why does it say i need Visual Studio?

edit : Im using the latest version of VS code

[TheGLander]

Please read the link the logs send you to, Visual Studio is required to build the binaries which better-sqlite3 uses, Visual Studio Code is not the same as Visual Studio.

Ok thanks, it works now! Thank You!
