Visual Studio 2017 Release Candidate

Is this also integrated with the new Docker features that we saw in the live stream? I think being able to code in VS, build the project in ones favorite Linux distributions docker image and running or debugging it there sounds quite compelling.

If I develop in VS for a Linux target system how does VS know about the headers/libraries on the target?

Oh and a question that would surely interest some of my colleagues: Can it also be used to build and debug Linux kernel stuff, e.g. kernel modules?

Enable ssh in your dockerfile and you are good to go there, see this one as an example: https://hub.docker.com/r/ducatel/visual-studio-linux-build-b...

Regarding headers/libs you would need to manage that yourself, I normally scp them down locally and add to my Intellisense paths.

Regarding the kernel that isn't something I've played with much, I've been able to load the source but I have not tried any debug scenarios there.
