pip install acora produced an error:

[...]
building 'acora._acora' extension
error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat

which is factually correct, as I don't have Visual Studio installed on this machine.

Could you please consider including a wheel in the acora package?

Could be done, I guess, if someone makes a commitment to build and maintain them. I certainly have neither time nor material to do so.

The workaround I used for Python2:
Install the VC++ for Python (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266)

For Python 3:
Install Build Tools for Visual Studio 2017 (https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2017)

After that pip install worked for me (Win 10 64 bit)
