These changes update the Dotfuscator Community documentation for the upcoming release of Visual Studio 2019.

Are there any additional steps we will need to take to preserve the existing documentation for Visual Studio 2017?

We are sharing files for both VS 2017 and VS 2017. There are ways to make an entire file applicable to just one or the other version, or to just make certain sections of a file applicable to one version. Would it be better to make this version agnostic if there's no difference between VS 2017 and VS 2019? If you want the syntax for making files or zones of files specific to a version, let me know.

I think it would probably be best to make version-specific zones for the installation section, could you give me an example of the syntax for separating zones of files? Thanks!

Take a look at this file for an example. Look for the sections surrounded by ::: moniker range="" and ::: moniker-end.

Great, thanks!

* If you instead see, under the *Menus* heading, **PreEmptive Protection - Dotfuscator Community**, then Dotfuscator Community is already installed. Select that option to [get started][get-started].

3. A Visual Studio Installer window will launch, pre-configured to install Dotfuscator Community.
* **Note:** You may be required to provide administrator credentials to continue.

@gewarren - I reviewed the changes in this PR and it seems to be ready to merge. However, since the public repo lacks proofing, staging, and validation tools, we can't tell if the new additions will introduce errors into the articles. To use those tools, the commits in this PR will need to be resubmitted or moved over to the private repo. We can move them and tag you for review / sign off. thanks.

I'm going to merge this now because Dotfuscator needs these to go live today for the VS 2019 release. We can make any necessary fixes after they go live.

Okay @gewarren - makes sense. Can someone check the views after this is published? Just want to make sure the moniker switch is working as intended and there are no layout anomalies.
