How to get .lib, .h and .dll of libvlc 3.0.0(or higher) for visual studio 2017 c++ developement (Windows10)?

I'm currently developing a win32 c++ streaming application for onvif conformant cameras.
I looked at libvlc's wiki --> https://wiki.videolan.org/LibVLC_Tutorial/ to get some intels on how to get libvlc's latest SDK(.lib, .h, .dll).
The only way I saw, was to recompile the source code after downloading it from https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html, selecting "source code" in the drop-down.
I'm far from being an expert in programming and I have no idea how to recompile/rebuild this source code... (Keep in mind I'm on Windows10)
Is there any way to get this sdk already compiled somewhere?

Thanks everyone for your precious time and help!

I just found out that the whole sdk is given in the .7z package! (Thanks to M. Jean-Baptiste Kempf)
