This is a workaround for "node-gyp is unable to find msbuild if VS2019 is installed"
  https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/issues/1663
It create a shim EXE as "MSBuild\15.0\Bin\MSBuild.exe" to target "MSBuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe"
By noseratio - MIT license - use at your own risk!
It requires admin mode, I use wsudo/wsudox (https://chocolatey.org/packages/wsudo) for that:
  wsudo powershell -f make-msbuild-shim.ps1

Some questions I took an opportunity to ask in this Twitter thread:

• How bad would it be to include a very short-lived OTP in a custom protocol URL link inside a web page, which takes user from their default browser to a locally installed native desktop app (say, Electron or WPF based)? So they don't have to authenticate again within the native app. More context here.

• Most native desktop apps (e.g., MS Teams) don't seem to follow RFC8252 that requires to use external user-agents (i.e. default browsers) for authorization flow. Instead, they "cheat" and use their own internal WebView to host the external OAuth providers web UI. What's the reason behind this choice? Is this only because it's allegedly considered user-unfriendly to lauch the default browser? Should the industry come up with some

Ctrl+Shift+V is nice for when and where it works.

Would you rather prefer Ctrl+V to paste unformatted text by default into any Windows app?

I personally think I want this behavior by default, and I could add this feature to DevComrade (free and open-source), if there's enough interest.

If you feel it's a good idea, please upvote this DevComrade issue, discuss it here or respond to my original tweet.
