+Visual Studio 15 2017
+---------------------
+
+Generates Visual Studio 15 (VS 2017) project files.
+
+The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set
+to specify a target platform name (architecture).
+
+For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.1, one may specify
+a target platform name optionally at the end of this generator name:
+
+``Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64``
+ Specify target platform ``x64``.
+
+``Visual Studio 15 2017 ARM``
+ Specify target platform ``ARM``.
+
+Toolset Selection
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The ``v141`` toolset that comes with Visual Studio 15 2017 is selected by
+default. The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` option may be set, perhaps
+via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-T`` option, to specify another toolset.
