# Compiling NIF for Windows
When compiling on Windows, you will need the [Build Tools](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2022) or equivalent toolchain. Please make sure you have the correct environment variables, including path to compiler and linker and architecture that matches `erl.exe` (likely x64).

You may also need to invoke `vcvarsall.bat amd64` _before_ running `mix`.
