You (fb devs) should consider higher level build system (CMake) that can generate all stuff for you. It can generate projects for any VS version. See https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.5/manual/cmake-generators.7.html#visual-studio-generators Maintaining different build systems (makefiles + VS projects for several versions) is not worth it. And other big projects confirm that cmake is suitable for use. (LLVM completely removed their autotools buils system and now it's cmake only.)

With cmake developer adds source file to cmake conf file and get it building on any toolchain he uses. Or even with globbing expressions (regex) files are added automatically when you put them in correct folder.
