Visual Basic Express is the development environment that we use to program EwE.  This is required if you want to program or look into the source code of EwE.
Note: you only need Visual Basic Express to develop on EwE.  Visual Studio (not free) enable you to have more functionality such as Class Diagrams and Nested Project Structure which is not crucial to EwE development.
