Visual Studio 2010 0r 2017?

I've been currently made to work on some GUI applications that integrate image processing using opencv.
And to be honest, I learnt opencv in VS2010 and the version of opencv that I configure in VS 2010 is much more familiar to me.
But the thing is VS 2010 is so damn difficult when it comes to having window forms and opencv at the same time... Different configs and different rules obviously!
So I've been thinking whether VS 2017 will be a much better replacement for VS 2010 for the collaboration of .net and opencv?
What're your thoughts?
