Vienna, VA (PRWEB) November 17, 2016 -- Visual Studio Magazine today announced the winners of its 23rd annual Reader’s Choice Awards. The 2016 winners are chosen by the readers of Visual Studio Magazine and honor the best Visual Studio- and .NET Framework-related tools and services in 36 categories.

It's been an interesting year for solution builders, one that has seen some incredible innovation as Microsoft has refocused its own solution stack.
