This package just installs the tools. It doesn't control which tools are compatible / needed. As far as I know, Microsoft's C++ compilers are the only ones that work with NodeJS (e.g. node-gyp) on Windows. You can see hints of this in the documentation, e.g. "This will generate either a Makefile (on Unix platforms) or a vcxproj file (on Windows) in the build/ directory."

Maybe I misunderstood your question. If you are trying to install the VS build tools / C++ compiler to be able to use some other tool that should be fine. If you just need that one package though you could instead just install it directly ("Download
Build Tools for Visual Studio 2017" link near the bottom).

thanks for answer, maybe my question not clear, sorry.
i think the problem is the cmake-js's detect.
