-# Install Visual Studio Community 2015
+# Overview
 
-If you don't already have Visual Studio 2015 you can install the free Microsoft "Visual Studio Community 2015" version available from https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs.aspx which was used for this guide.
+This guide describes how to build CubicSDR together with its dependencies and some common SoapySDR modules (support for SDR hardware).
+While the focus is on Visual Studio 2017, it works also for Visual Studio 2015. The 2017 version is just a better 2015 version in every way, so use this one preferably. 
+Visual Studio 2017 also has a better optimizing compiler which may result a faster CubicSDR.
 
-During installation make sure you select the 'C++' compiler under 'Programming Languages' or you'll be unable to compile the project due to the missing C++ tools.
+Interesting point, VS2017 produces binaries compatible with VS2015 ones, so there is no point of not using VS2017.
+
+Alternatively if you don't want to compile anything and install pre-built binaries instead of an almost up to date CubicSDR (typically a month-old), you can install the amazing [PothosSDR distribution](https://github.com/pothosware/PothosSDR/wiki/Tutorial) (Rsources / Download installer)

+# Install Visual Studio Community 2017
+
+If you don't already have Visual Studio 2017 you can install the free Microsoft "Visual Studio Community 2017" version available from https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/ which was used for this guide.
+
+During installation with the 'Visual Studio Installer' make sure you select at least the `C++ Desktop development` category or you'll be unable to compile the project due to the missing C++ tools. Alternatively, you can select more focused `Individual Components` for a finer-grained installation.
 
 # Build wxWidgets

+Download https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/releases/download/v3.1.1/wxWidgets-3.1.1.zip and unzip it to somewhere such as C:\MSVCDev\wxWidgets-3.1.1\
 
-Navigate to C:\MSVCDev\wxWidgets-3.1.0\build\msw\ (or wherever you extracted) and open wx_vc14.sln.
+Navigate to C:\MSVCDev\wxWidgets-3.1.1\build\msw\ (or wherever you extracted) and open wx_vc15.sln.
 
 Choose "Release" and "x64" for the build configuration and "Build Solution".  All *should* compile successfully and you can close the project.

+This configuration effectively builds wxWidgets as static library, later linked to CubicSDR.
