For windows it should be something along this:

1. Install openssl https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html
2. Install gcc from https://winlibs.com/ (edited)
3. Add the following 2 lines after the first line to the file v/vlib/net/openssl/c.v - adjust the path if necessary #flag windows -I C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\include #flag windows -L C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\lib
4. Rebuild V with the v self command

At some point in the future this windows workaround won't be necessary anymore - see here:

sorry about that windows + openssl is tough, we'll embed openssl into 3rdparty soon https://discord.com/channels/592103645835821068/592114487759470596/975724192592953355
