 ;Today's Reality
-The general concepts of game and AddOn development, especially for WoW itself, are far more well understood and by a larger audience today, than they were during the time of the original [[wowwiki:World of Warcraft|World of Warcraft]]. And since the introduction of AddOn Studio for WoW many games have come, and some gone, using Lua and similar game customization methods as WoW. With this the general expectations of quality in consumer level development tools has risen as well.

 AddOn Studio {{#var:EDITION}} improves on the 2015 edition, with an even more advanced and complete set of IDE features, and is a powerful general IDE for WoW AddOn development. AoS uses a free Visual Studio back-end, with support for graphical [[wo:Frame XML|Frame XML]] AddOn development. One of AddOn Studio's goals is combine these together to help make WoW AddOn development tools real first class citizens, in a game tools world where that almost never happens.
