Compile directly with Visual Studio & Win 10/11 #22

Instructions indicate that this project requires mingw toolchain to compile the VST3. Wondering if this could be modified to enable Microsoft toolchain / Visual Studio without mingw, as this is would be a more common development environment.

Much thanks!

Thanks for checking out the project!

As far as I know, there's no code in the project that would be GCC or MinGW-specific, so in theory, it should be possible to compile it with any standard C++ toolchains. If someone adds the necessary project files and stuff in a PR, and it doesn't make a mess in the repo, then I'm happy to merge it.

But if I have to choose between making music, or implementing some feature that I miss, or spending hours figuring out and setting up a toolchain that I normally don't use, then it's unlikely to happen in the foreseeable future.
