Appendix F. Setting up Visual Studio 2017 for IoT development

While I was writing this book, Visual Studio 2017 was released. It has a different installer than Visual Studio 2015, so here I show you how you can set up Visual Studio 2017 and use it to implement the sample apps described throughout this book. Additionally, I describe how to set up and deploy C# apps to the IoT device and how to configure the Portable Class Library using Visual Studio 2017.
