I downloaded VS community 2022 and I know how to access the developer

Prompt for VS 2022
I ran a command to compile my python code that was converted to c with
the following command:
H:\Users\LindaJim\Documents\SourceCode\Software\aws_pc_backup\src\c>cl
/O2
/I"C:\\Users\\jschw\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python3112\\include\\"
aws_pc_backup.c

/out:aws_pc_backup.exe
aws_pc_backup.obj
C:\\Users\\jschw\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python3112\\libs\\python311.lib
Creating library aws_pc_backup.lib and object aws_pc_backup.exp
When I ran the program, I got this, though. Obviously, it doesn't
know about the requests package. Do I have to link something in with
the executable?
H:\Users\LindaJim\Documents\SourceCode\Software\aws_pc_backup\src\c>aws_pc_backup.exe
-m:lb
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "src\\python\\aws_pc_backup_main.py", line 7, in init
python.aws_pc_backup_main
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'

hear that cl can use a setup.py program to run the compile and link
and create a windows .msi installer. Is that true?
It is part of visual studio C++.
Once you have that installed there are bat files that setup
environment in the terminal.
Then you can use cl, nmake etc
