Visual Studio is on WPF, so you can forget it. WPF is an abandoned platform. It is a wonder they're still trying though, even their web-based IDE (VS-code) is faster.

Funny, just a few months ago WPF got a few updates in VS 2015, WPF blog was reactivated and BUILD had a few sessions on it.

I have been doing greenfield WPF applications for companies in the life sciences industry in the last three years, and they will not move away from it any time soon.
