1Get MSVC++ and install it.

1Hi, you need to install visual c++ 14. In the error description is what is missing and where to download.

1As for why you need the Build Tools for Visual Studio, it's because some python modules have native dependencies, basically parts of the code are written in C++ for performance. These need to be compiled at the end of the pip install step, and on Windows this uses Visual Studio C++ Compiler.
