You'll need mingw or msys(2) or cygwin installed and added to your PATH. Also be sure that make is installed (on msys2)

My compile command (pylauncher)

py -2 build.py dox etg --nodoc sip build --python=C:\Python35\python.exe

Alternatively, a wheel for CPython 3.5 x64 users

New wheel for CPython 3.5 x64 with the latest fixes and additions.

As of about 5-6 days ago, this is no longer required.
In fact, the buildbot now produces CPython 3.5 wheels. You can find them at http://wxpython.org/Phoenix/snapshot-builds/?C=M;O=D

Install with pip

pip3 install -U --pre --trusted-host wxpython.org -f http://wxpython.org/Phoenix/snapshot-builds/ wxPython_Phoenix
