Python isn't installed on Windows, the pre-installed python version on macOS is stuck at 2.7.10.

ninja isn't installed on macOS and Windows, and both systems require to first install a package manager before installing ninja, or compile ninja from scratch.

ninja on windows just requires you to download ninja.exe and put it in your path

python and ninja are also bundled in the installer for meson.
