**Visual Studio 2017 15.7 Preview 2.0 or later is needed to run the solution from the *[DEV branch](https://github.com/dotnet-architecture/eShopOnContainers/tree/dev)* (current evolving code) which now includes API Gateways features**. Due to the configuration used in `docker-compose.yml` file, VS 15.7 (currently in Preview 2) is needed to run the solution at [DEV branch](https://github.com/dotnet-architecture/eShopOnContainers/tree/dev) or you can also run eShopOnContainers with Docker CLI with *"docker-compose up"* or deploying to *Kubernetes/AKS*.
Trying to run the solution at [DEV branch](https://github.com/dotnet-architecture/eShopOnContainers/tree/dev) in VS 15.6 (current RTM of Visual Studio 2017) will generate errors (complaining about invalid values in docker-compose file).

If you want/need to run eShopOnContainers in **Visual Studio 2017 15.6 RTM** or previous, you'll need to use the code at the **[MASTER branch](https://github.com/dotnet-architecture/eShopOnContainers/tree/master)** which is the previous stable version of eShopOnContainers.
