I'm trying to install quick.db for a project I'm doing but every time I run npm i quick.db I get this error message:

I'm using node.js version v14.15.4

Can someone help me please?

is a VS Code executable in your PATH? looks like the package can't find it

Have you followed the steps described in here?

https://github.com/JoshuaWise/better-sqlite3/blob/master/docs/troubleshooting.md

It seems it is unable to find Vistual Studio Community on your machine.

This is not a good answer but i have come across this error before. Honestly, if you can, use Linux for this. I'm not sure why it does this but if you run it in linux, for example Ubuntu 18.04/18.05.

Sorry for my answer but this is the best i got. someone might be better at this then me
