+Projects for various integrated development environments (IDE)
+==============================================================
+
+#### Included projects
+
+The following projects are included with the lz4 distribution:
+- `VS2010` - Visual Studio 2010 project (which also works well with Visual Studio 2012, 2013, 2015)
+
+
+#### How to compile lz4 with Visual Studio
+
+1. Install Visual Studio e.g. VS 2015 Community Edition (it's free).
+2. Download the latest version of lz4 from https://github.com/lz4/lz4/releases
+3. Decompress ZIP archive.
+4. Go to decompressed directory then to `visual` then `VS2010` and open `lz4.sln`
+5. Visual Studio will ask about converting VS2010 project to VS2015 and you should agree.
+6. Change `Debug` to `Release` and if you have 64-bit Windows change also `Win32` to `x64`.
+7. Press F7 on keyboard or select `BUILD` from the menu bar and choose `Build Solution`.
+8. If compilation will be fine a compiled executable will be in `visual\VS2010\bin\x64_Release\lz4.exe`
+
+
+#### Projects available within lz4.sln
+
+The Visual Studio solution file `lz4.sln` contains many projects that will be compiled to the
+`visual\VS2010\bin\$(Platform)_$(Configuration)\lz4.exe` directory. For example `lz4` set to `x64` and
+`Release` will be compiled to `visual\VS2010\bin\x64_Release\lz4.exe`. The solution file contains the
+following projects:
+
+- `lz4` : Command Line Utility, supporting gzip-like arguments
+- `datagen` : Synthetic and parametrable data generator, for tests
+- `frametest` : Test tool that checks lz4frame integrity on target platform
+- `fullbench`  : Precisely measure speed for each lz4 inner functions
+- `fuzzer` : Test tool, to check lz4 integrity on target platform 
+- `liblz4` : A static LZ4 library compiled to `liblz4_x86.lib` or `liblz4_x64.lib`
+- `liblz4-dll` : A dynamic LZ4 library (DLL) compiled to `lz4_x86.dll` or `lz4_x64.dll` with the import library `lz4_x86.lib` or `lz4_x64.lib`
+- `fullbench-dll` : The fullbench program compiled with the import library; the executable requires LZ4 DLL
+
+
+#### Using LZ4 DLL with Microsoft Visual C++ project
+
+1. Copy `lz4.h` into a directory found in the INCLUDE path list.
+2. Copy the import library `lz4_x86.lib` or `lz4_x64.lib` into a directory found in the LIB path list.
+3. Add `lz4_x86.lib` or `lz4_x64.lib` to your project.
+4. Compile the project. The compiled executable requires `lz4_x86.dll` or `lz4_x64.dll`.
