VS2017 support

[codinglifestyle]

Can you please look into enabling this plug-in for VS2017?

Thanks for the link.
Unfortunately I do not have Visual Studio of any version at this moment. So it basically can't do anything.
Did you try old hack with manually update VS version in *.vsixmanifest inside vsix package?

That would be preferred way to fix, because I do not like all this kungfu described in tutorial, and also will keep things working for older versions of VS.

This worked for me. Thanks! I downloaded the source. I opened the solution in VS 2015. I modified the .vsixmanifest by copying the support version 14.0 section and pasting and changing to 15.0. Then I built in Release mode and closed all VS. I double-clicked on the vsix package to install it and it worked, it detected it needed to be installed to VS2017 and it seems to work as well. It did give me a warning when installing but I am using it and it appears to be working with no issues. Hope these instructions help someone else. I love this extension and was bummed when I didn't see it for VS2017.
