Uh.... VS has always been able to do C/C++ compilation. Like... for decades now? Just not with the standard Linux toolchain, but you've always been able to build C/C++ projects on Windows.

Not only that, but Visual Studio is based off Visual C++ in the first place.

Thanks for the downvote guys. I wasn't born under a rock.

The article was talking about Windows Subsystem for Linux, and my comment was that VS can do C/C++ for Linux. I thought that was implied by the context.

Anyways, I know VS has done C/C++ for forever. :)
