I have poked around the node-gyp project and don't see any easy way to elect an alternate compiler compared to other ecosystems on windows. The terms for the Build Tools require some commercial Visual Studio license which for companies cannot be the Visual Studio Community Edition. So not only do we need to provide a VS Ent/Pro license for the direct team any contributor would need terms as well to allow for the CI runners to be appropriately licensed which is a headwind to inner source.
