Adding a README.md file to a c# project in Visual Studio 2015

When adding a README.md file to my c# project in Visual Studio 2015 the file doesn't show in the Solution Explorer. It was also untracked in Team Explorer (using Git), but that's easy to fix.

Does anyone know how to go about adding it to / showing it in Solution Explorer?

Also does anyone know of a VS 2015 add-in to render it nicely in the studio?

Where does the README.md file go?

The README.md file should be easy to find and is commonly found in the same place within most projects industry wide. This place is in the top-most directory known as the root directory which is in the hierarchy of a project file system.

Look in the top of the solution explorer for the option add hidden files. It should appear with dotted outline.

If you wish to add it to the project you can right click and press "add to project"
