 # Visual Studio projects - C++
 
 A *Visual Studio project* is a collection of code files and assets such as icons, images, and so on, that are built together using the MSBuild build system. MSBuild is the native build system for Visual Studio and is generally the best build system to use for Windows-specific programs. MSBuild is tightly integrated with Visual Studio, but you can also use it from the command line.
 
-For cross-platform projects, or projects that use open-source libraries, we recommend using [CMake projects in Visual Studio](cmake-projects-in-visual-studio.md) in Visual Studio 2017 and later. For information about upgrading MSBuild projects from older versions of Visual Studio, see the [Microsoft C++ Porting and Upgrading Guide](../porting/visual-cpp-porting-and-upgrading-guide.md).

 Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) refers to the C++, C, and assembly language development tools and libraries available as part of Visual Studio on Windows. These tools and libraries let you create Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps, native Windows desktop and server applications, cross-platform libraries and apps that run on Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS, as well as managed apps and libraries that use the .NET Framework. You can use MSVC to write anything from simple console apps to the most sophisticated and complex apps for Windows desktop, from device drivers and operating system components to cross-platform games for mobile devices, and from the smallest IoT devices to multi-server high performance computing in the Azure cloud.
