unable to install zerorpc on windows 10 using npm

First of all, I've checked How to install zeroRPC (python) on windows, but couldn't find an answer to my question.

I'm trying to install zerorpc to use Electronjs with python, using:

npm install zerorpc --save

This is the error:

npm ERR! path git
npm ERR! code ENOENT
npm ERR! errno ENOENT
npm ERR! syscall spawn git
npm ERR! enoent Error while executing:
npm ERR! enoent undefined ls-remote -h -t https://github.com/fyears/zerorpc-node.git

Also, this is my package.json:

{
  "name": "pretty-calculator",
  "main": "main.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "electron ."
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "zerorpc": "git+https://github.com/fyears/zerorpc-node.git"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "electron": "^5.0.7",
    "electron-rebuild": "^1.8.5"
  }
}

I have been following this tutorial: https://github.com/fyears/electron-python-example

My system:

Edit: I have already installed the windows-build-tools.

npm install -g zerorpc

C:\Users\TXJ0890\OneDrive - Shire PLC\Desktop\python\Electronjs>npm install -g zerorpc

This is because you have python3 installed instead of python2 (as you should), but zeromq requires python2.

Install Python2 on your computer and modify the PATH variable so that it finds python2 before python3. After that you should be able to run your installation command. Remember to change it afterwards!

I'm sorry if this answer has come too late.
