You could compile it using MSYS and mingw32, but frankly, if you are
a newbie, why don't you use a precompiled version of 21.2 or 21.3?
Compiling yourself should only be necessary for developer versions.

There are precompiled versions for Windows:

If you are a "perfect newbie", would it make more sense to 
just download the precompiled binaries?
