Hi, try to install fitsio but I take error below. System is Windows 10 x64. I tried pip, setup.py and conda. Pip and setup.py says same error "MSVCCompiler object has no attribute 'compiler'. Conda error is more interesting, it cannot find the package. I tried with navigator too.
Error by setup.py:

I'm sorry, I don't have windows to test fitsio. Does anyone else have access to windows to help?
We could attempt to ship a windows package in conda. I have been avoiding this since it is a can of worms and support on conda-forge is somewhat spotty, but this might help solve the issue.
Hello,
I have also the same issue on Windows platform, looked at the setup.py but couldn’t find anything that would help to workaround this issue…
Any tips are welcome.
Where does this stand now?
Unfortunately we still have no core developers that use windows. We welcome help from windows experts.
