In this course, instructors Kendra Havens and Scott Hanselman introduce you to installing, setting up, and using Visual Studio.

First, they offer a quick look at the best features Visual Studio has to offer. Next, they walk you through installing a free copy of Visual Studio on your machine to create your first C# app, compile the app, and debug it. They give you a whirlwind tour of .NET features that developers love. They conclude by showing you the lively open-source communities that .NET and Visual Studio have, ranging from in-person meetups to live streams to conferences.

This course was created by Microsoft.NET. We are pleased to host this training in our library.
