Some of the improvements brought by .NET Framework 4.7 include the following:
High DPI support for Windows Forms apps on Windows 10, including DPI improvements for the use of high-res icons and glyphs, a layout optimized correctly for high DPI screens, improved support for changes in DPI, and more Enhanced support for cryptography Touch support for WPF apps on Windows 10 Reliability and performance improvements
The release is important for developers who want to use the latest capabilities introduced in this new version. Windows users will benefit from them as soon as developers start using them. Since .NET Framework 4.7 is an in-place update of .NET Framework 4.6.2, apps compatible with the previous version should also be able to run properly after this last update.
.NET Framework 4.7 implements .NET Standard 1.6. The .NET Standard 2.0 spec will ship later this year. .NET Framework 4.6.1 and later will support .NET Standard 2.0 .NET Framework 4.7 includes System.ValueTuple. You no longer have to reference the System.ValueTuple NuGet package with .NET Framework 4.7 projects. You can start using .NET Framework 4.7 on Windows 10 Creators Update.
