Whats in Microsofts New C# Dev Kit for Visual Studio Code --
Summary
Released just over two weeks ago, the C# Dev Kit (Preview) extension in the VS Code Marketplace has already been installed more than 85,000 times. Those Visual Studio roots include the IDEs licensing model, which means the kit is free for individuals, academia and open source development. As shown in the graphic above, the kits three components include: • The C# extension, which provides base language services support and continues to be maintained independent of this effort. • C# Dev Kit extension, which builds from the foundations of Visual Studio to provide solution management, templates, and test discovery/debugging. Microsoft, which has published "Getting Started with C# in VS Code" documentation for the kit, is inviting developer feedback on the preview offering.
