A quick update this cycle so I can get right back to it: I managed to free up meaningful blocks of time for Premake in February—felt good!—and tackle **files** and **removeFiles**, support configuration and platform specific files, and get it all exporting to Visual Studio (…and bulldoze through the rabbit holes along the way). From the user-facing side not a big change, but [a hefty commit](https://github.com/starkos/premake-next/commit/f5cb8678a6cc2939faceacbb8143bd9a094709f6) just the same. The core platform is starting to feel reasonably complete.
### What's Next
- For real this time, first thing: step away from the code and open an RFC on merging the projects. I've never been great at that whole "stepping away from the code" thing but I'll do my very best.
- Work with [@KyrietS](https://github.com/KyrietS) to bring [a new & improved documentation system online](https://github.com/premake/premake-core/pull/1587).
Longer term: push to get the new code to the point where it can generate its own Visual Studio project files. I've actually done a good chunk of work on this, but wasn't quite able to bring it home this month. Then do the same with Xcode.
