It is not trivial to install steem on python 3.6 under windows. It is not easy to compile scrypt-0.8.0 on Windows. I forked the repo and started the build server.
Now it is possible to install steem without having Visual studio installed.

i agree!!! I couldn't get it installed on windows for the life of me. Actually I know some very talented python programs who never did either.
