Vim, Vundle and ConEmu on Windows

Let's start by getting it out on the table: Sublime Text is great, and version 3 should no longer be considered "abandonware" as of build 3065. Sublime Text served me very, very well over the years. That said, trying out new things is a major part of leveling-up, and in that vein Vim deserves a go. (And have you seen some of those thoughtbot guys flying around in Vim? It's awesome!)

Getting Vim up-and-running on your Windows machine doesn't have to be an all-day project. In this post, we'll walk through:

Installing gVim, which gives us both the "classic" command line version as well as the graphical version
Installing Vundle, the best way to handle Vim-enhancing packages
Installing ConEmu, a supercharged command line emulator for Windows

Clang on Windows (VS 2017 build tools)

There are plenty of tutorials online on how to install clang on windows with visual studioIDE and MinGW. However, there are none on clang with visual studio build tools.

Requirements:

64-bit Windows 7 SP1 or newer with the latest updates installed
6 GB of free space on the partition where Windows is installed
internet connection (for installation only)

1. Install VS 2017 build tools

%VS2017BuildToolsDir% = installation directory of VS 2017 build tools
