To see what languages are supported, click hereAn editor that knows your code
Let Visual Studio think about your code and tell you which types go where. Tooltips, completions and code snippets make you more productive.
Find and install the libraries you need
Third-party libraries are the fastest way to solve your problems. Use our pip, PyPI and virtual environment support to manage your projects and dependencies.
Interactively diagnose issues with your code on Windows and Linux
None of us write perfect code all the time, but when it goes wrong Visual Studio can help. Visually step through your code, view or modify state, and interact with your program regardless of the operating system.
Git and TFS without a command line
Manage your Git/TFS projects, pending changes, and branches with ease using Team Explorer, or check out one of the many source control extensions available for Visual Studio.
Validate your changes in the editor
