title: Compile Visual Studio projects without having Visual Studio installed?
body: <p>Is there a way to compile a Visual Studio 2012 project without having the VS installed? I need to compile C++ stuff for windows quite rarely and buying the product is not justified as there's no profit (community projects). In most of the cases the project and solution files will be available. If there's a way to compile the code with SDK, could you please share an example? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
