mean.js installation error on npm install

I tried to build the mean stack by following the installation steps in https://github.com/meanjs/mean

I cloned the code from git and run the command npm install

And got the below error towards the end. 

npm ERR! Windows_NT 10.0.10240
npm ERR! argv "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe" "C:\\Users\\..\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\node_modules\\npm\\bin\\npm-cli.js" "install"

You're running a Windows system, and node-gyp on windows requires both Python and Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2013. Depending on your setup you may also need to install the Windows 7 64-bit SDK.

See the node-gyp docs for more info.
