How to install and use “make” in Windows?

I’m following the instructions of someone whose repository I cloned to my machine. I want to use the make command as part of setting up the code environment, but I’m using Windows. I searched online, but I could only find a make.exe file, a make-4.1.tar.gz file (I don’t know what to do with it next) and instructions for how to download MinGW (for GNU; but after installing it I didn’t find any mention of “make”).

How do I use make in Windows without a GNU compiler or related packages?
