my overall experience with Microsoft Visual Studio has been highly positive. Its comprehensive toolset, intuitive interface, and robust debugging capabilities have greatly facilitated my development workflow. While occasional resource consumption issues and update interruptions may occur, they are outweighed by the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the IDE.

Pros

Microsoft Visual Studio stands out for its comprehensive toolset, intuitive interface, and wide language support. Its powerful debugging capabilities and seamless integration with the Microsoft ecosystem make it a favorite among developers. With a vibrant community and extensive support resources, Visual Studio is the go-to choice for efficient and effective software development.

Cons

Microsoft Visual Studio can be resource-intensive, consuming significant memory and CPU, particularly when handling large projects.

Overall, this has now become a top choice for me and many of my friends. Its just seamlessly user friendly design and vast variety of feature set makes it the best one and top choice for all devs.

Pros

The most thing I loved about Visual Studio is its highly customizable interface. It helps very much for personalized and efficient work. The real time intelli sense helps me to increase my coding speed and accuracy and its integrated debugging tools just makes my life easier to find bugs in shorter time as compared to others. Also if I say other things is I loved its integration with git which makes code management effortless. Mostly this works with my low gm ram computer.

Cons

It is very hard to find anything that I liked least in this software. Everything is so seamlessly good.

I've been around since the very first versions and I've never looked back, as said before, I use VS Code on the Mac as well and tons of features are shared, but VS is not the IDE by a long shot as VS is on Windows.
VS is a perfect match for Core 8, Angular, Typescript and what not.

Pros

It works. Mostly. Support for Core 8, TypeScript, all modern tools and languages. Integrated, easy set up and quick updates.

Cons

None, really except ONE. MS pulled the plug on Mac OS and that's a major setup. Im now running VS Code on the Mac and VS on a virtual machine on Azure. Works perfectly, but WHY!! I want VS on MAC!!

Review of Microsoft visual studio

Reviewed on 17/4/2024

Pros

What I always loved about Visual Studio is it had an IDE for so many different languages and projects like Win32, WPF, Xamarin, Unity, Cordoba plus so much more in one product.
In my opinion, Visual Studio is the best coding software ever due to it's ease of use, and it is affordable to everyone.

Cons

It can be sometimes unresponsive or crash, and font rendering could be better. But I guess these are both problems that come with it being an Electron-based app.
Beginners will definitely be intimidated by how hard learning everything is.

Visual Studio is a no brainer

Reviewed on 16/12/2023

Pros

It is feature rich and relatively easy to use. I've found the AWS toolkit for visual studio particularly useful, that along with github integration makes CI/CD a breeze.

Cons

It tends to be heavy on system resources, and I probably would not use it outside of the context of programming in C#.

I developed a system that manages a bank database in C# in visual studio as a project, it was very comfortable for me to work on it.
I have used the same types of other products and IDEs but I found them difficult and they were a bit uncomfortable.

Pros

IDE for programmers that I find it to be the best is one that offers extensions making it convenient to write code in any programming language.
Its search and filtering capabilities allow for navigation through files.
Additionally it is lightweight. Can be installed on platforms such, as Windows or Ubuntu.

Cons

The platform is very broad which may cause it to run slowly on devices and cannot work on weak devices.
When installed, it will take up about 5GB of disk space excluding other add-ons.
In addition, the cost of licensing Visual Studio is also high.
