Prismatik Build Instructions for Windows #579

Hi. I'm having a real hard time trying to follow the Prismatik Build Instructions for Windows. I've ran the QT (QT 6.4.2) installer but can't find the msvc version of qmake... only mingw_64.

In Visual Studio 2022, it's possible to add QT as an extension: Qt Visual Studio Tools. However, it says "You must select a Qt version to use for development", and I still can't find the msvc one, VS 2022 doesn't seem to like mingw.

Do you think you could update the instructions on how to build for Windows 11 with QT 6 and VS 2022? I think there might be a lot of people like me out there eager to try out Prismatik but not being able to build. Thanks.

You should install QT with msvc.
