gyp ERR! stack Error: Command failed:

This is due to the fact that python2 is not installed.

node gyp does not require python 3 rather python2.

Alternatively installation of node version 12 inplace of version 10 solves the issues as it installs the missing visualstudio2017-workload-vctools...

The node-gyp installation instructions provide two options to get all of their necessary dependencies, including Python 2.

Option 1

Install all the required tools and configurations using Microsoft's windows-build-tools using npm install --global --production windows-build-tools from an elevated PowerShell or CMD.exe (run as Administrator).

npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

Option 2 is to install them manually, individually. Read everything here: https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#on-windows

It looks like you need to download python 2.7 to continue at python.org
