First time setup in Visual Studio

When you open the solution for the first time you'll have _almost _everything you need. The missing item that will stop the project from building is the YamlDotNet library. Visual Studio will help you get this library using NuGet package restore.

Right-click on the solution (not the project) and select Manage NuGet Packages for Solution.
Select Restore on the yellow bar. It's recommended that you upgrade to the latest version from this dialog as well.
