The new free program is supposed to offer “everything developers need to create applications on any device or operating system, using their technology of choice.” Talk about a bold pitch to developers. The launch of Visual Studio Dev Essentials is arguably the “biggest” of all the announcements.
At the same time, Microsoft has a roadmap document, which outlines the company’s priorities for the next six months. The new extension model even includes a gallery available within the IDE and online for discovering and installing extensions (more on that later). Microsoft is offering over 60 extensions at launch, spanning languages (Go support is a go!), linters, color themes, snippets, debuggers, and so on. Microsoft has also released a set of guidelines, samples, and tools to support the community in the creation of extensions.Įxtensions can expand the capabilities of Visual Studio Code with additional features, themes, and language support. The beta includes a handful of new features, though extensibility support is probably the biggest addition, given that it was the feature most requested by developers.
Today’s release puts the IDE in beta, which Microsoft declared is “the most significant release since the launch.” Visual Studio Code was first released back in April as a preview.
On stage today, Microsoft open-sourced the tool by releasing its code on GitHub, and announced that it is taking contributions from the community. Visual Studio Code is a cross-platform web and cloud development code editor available not just for Windows, but for Mac and Linux, too. Visual Studio Code, which still isn’t even complete, has passed 1 million downloads. Visual Studio Community, which is aimed at students, open-source contributors, small companies, startups, and individual developers, has passed 7 million downloads. Since July, the IDE has seen over 5 million downloads. Wa_cq_url: "/content/Azizirad informed us that the “momentum has been really crazy.” Visual Studio 2015, the first version that Microsoft considers to be “open by design,” is now the most quickly adopted version of Visual Studio ever.
