Visual Studio implements conceptual containers called solutions and projects
to enable the integrated development environment (IDE) to apply its wide
range of tools, designers, templates, and settings. Also, Visual Studio
provides Solution Folders to organize related projects into groups and then
perform actions on those groups of projects.
A project includes a set of source files, plus related metadata such as
component references and build instructions. Projects generally produce one
or more output files when built. A solution includes one or more projects,
plus files and metadata that help define the solution as a whole:
