A few days ahead of the Windows 10 launch, Microsoft has released the latest version of its development environment. Over the last few years, Microsoft has been making Visual Studio into a tool for cross-platform development, with a mix of both first- and third-party components, and Visual Studio 2015 takes this to the next level.
