Missing requirement for devkit #9

Closed LemADEC closed 7 years ago

While trying to use on Windows, bundle install fails on json due to missing devkit.

I haven't ever run this on Windows or used RubyInstaller, but it looks like there are some additional steps in order to enable support for certain gems (like the json gem upon which spotify-export relies). Following the instructions from the URL in the RubyInstaller error you pasted above should work. This doesn't appear to be a bug in the utility itself.
