Visual Studio 2019 Professional - the versatile developer software for purchase

Visual Studio 2019 Professional from Microsoft is the latest version of the proven Integrated Development Environment (IDE), designed for demanding programmers and small to medium development teams. The extensive range of functions offers all the tools needed to realize the next generation of apps and games - including Xamarin for Android, macOS, iOS, tvOS and watchOS-based apps. Other features that make development even more efficient include Tool CodeLens to show the use of individual code snippets in the solution without interrupting work, IntelliCode to speed up work through AI-based solution proposals, and Visual Studio Live Share, which supports teamwork through real-time collaboration. Visual Studio 2019 Professional also includes improvements to navigation, refactoring, and debugging. In addition, the integrated development environment in Visual Studio 2019 Professional supports C# in addition to older languages such as C and C++.

The offer of Visual Studio 2019 Professional Edition as used software at Wiresoft offers developers all the advantages of this proven Microsoft software so that they can use it on their own PC thanks to its low price as a single license.

In the Wiresoft software online shop you will find not only Visual Studio 2019 Professional but also other single licenses of Visual Studio editions or versions as purchase version as well as many other Microsoft programs compatible with it. The following overview shows the most important optimizations and new features of Visual Studio 2019 Professional.

Visual Studio 2019 Professional Edition Highlights

In addition to the significantly easier navigation, the current version 2019 of Visual Studio is also better suited for developers with visual impairments. Compared to the previous version, there is also an optimized refactoring and a revision of the builds and solution loads. The debugger - one of the most important programming tools  - also offers additional options.

Git-First workflow with easier code launch

The new Visual Studio 2019 start window now offers several options: First, it offers the option to clone or check out code from a repository, along with other options for opening or creating a project or solution. In addition, the modernized start window has a new blue design that is particularly different from the previous version due to the softer lines around icons, toolbars and tool windows. The menu has been moved up into the title bar to create more space for the code in the editor. This also optimized the memory space without changing the navigation in the IDE.

The previous dialog has also been redesigned, whereby the previous tree structure no longer exists and has been replaced by a search field with various powerful search and filter functions - e.g. by language, platform and project type - to find suitable templates. The search can be applied to commands, options and menus, and also to installable components; in addition to the search results for commands, the corresponding key combinations are also displayed. The results are displayed dynamically as you type. The newly integrated use of a fuzzy search algorithm also takes into account spelling mistakes or a more natural language.

AI-supported IntelliCode in Visual Studio 2019 Professional

The new IntelliCode is an evolution of the previous IntelliSense auto-completion in Visual Studio, and provides several AI-based features such as contextual IntelliSense, code formatting, and a format rule derivation to further improve development productivity. Unlike IntelliSense, which displayed properties and methods as an alphabetical list, IntelliCode lists the most likely results, preceded by an asterisk. Developers using C# can also apply IntelliCode to their own code to help them learn, while the other recommendations are based on the Microsoft Open Source domain. In Visual Studio 2019 Professional, IntelliSense AI-based recommendations can also be used for two other languages: C++ and XAML, or TypeScript/JavaScript and Java, which have been added in Visual Studio Code.

CodeLens in Visual Studio 2019 Professional

CodeLense significantly accelerates developer work with Visual Studio 2019 Professional, because the tool works independently in parallel without having to close the editor. CodeLens determines all changes to a code as well as the code history, with

References to relevant code sections and changes, code reviews, linked errors, etc. Before changes are merged with the code, they can be reviewed to see what effect they would have. Item level code indicators for C# and Visual Basic code also show which team member made changes to the code. CodeLense is an exclusive feature of

Visual Studio 2019 Professional or Enterprise Edition.

Visual Studio Live Share

The Live Share feature built into Visual Studio 2019 Professional allows up to 30 developers to collaborate in real time on the same source code base that is shared with context. This is possible because Visual Studio Live Share only transfers the file tree and context information. Each team member can therefore edit the source code independently of the host in their familiar working environment. AI functions are also integrated here, among other things to improve the code quality. Joint debugging is also possible with Visual Studio Live Share.

Additional features of Visual Studio 2019 Professional

Visual Studio 2019 Professional also offers many other useful features:

Refactoring in Visual Studio 2019 Professional

In Visual Studio 2019 Professional, new refactorings are available for C#, making it even easier to organize code: For example, members can be moved to the interface or the base class and namespaces can be customized to conform to a folder structure. Appropriate suggestions are displayed in the so-called light bulb.

Code Cleanup

Code Cleanup is the function for automatically reformatting source code in Visual Studio 2019, it is displayed as a broom below the Source Editor. The code format settings can be defined with the help of an EditorConfig file either only project-related or also for the entire code via the options in the text editor. Visual Studio 2019 Professional provides a separate Code Cleanup button in the Editor for code cleaning C# code files. In addition, users can specify the Preference and Severity values for each line of each code format setting, with Refactoring Only, Suggestion, Warning, or Error options for Severity. The displayed hints or suggestions can not only be displayed with a single click, but can also be implemented immediately, and frequently occurring corrections can also be saved as a profile.

Debugging in Visual Studio 2019

Not only does the debugger in Visual Studio 2019 Professional run at twice the speed it used to, but it also reduces the amount of memory used when debugging out-of-process C++ applications. To identify objects by their properties, simply drag the cursor over a specific property in the debugger window and click the pin icon to display information. In Visual Studio 2019, data breakpoints are now available for .NET Core applications instead of C++ only. They interrupt code execution when the value of a property for a particular object changes, regardless of its position.

Xamarin for Mobile Development

Apps created with Xamarin for Android, iOS and Windows have a native look and feel, which is why they are so popular. Xamarin in Visual Studio 2019 not only provides faster compilation and deployment times for Android, but now includes a property editor for Xamarin.Forms XAML and an optimized Xamarin.Forms Previewer.

PMA (Per Monitor Aware) Rendering

Users who like to use multiple monitors or work remotely when developing should especially appreciate this feature: Until now, using monitors with different resolutions has caused various problems during development, for example, rendering was usually done at the wrong scale or Visual Studio itself was blurred. Visual Studio 2019 Professional now offers a PMA-compatible display, which means, among other things, that the software renders correctly regardless of the respective scaling factors. The minimum requirement for this is the Windows 10 Update (v1803, RS4) or .NET Framework 4.8 RTM.

Container Tools in Visual Studio 2019 Professional

By taking advantage of support for Azure Cloud Services, developers can use, among other things, the container development tools included in Visual Studio, which greatly simplify building, debugging and deployment. Visual Studio 2019 Professional also provides support for Docker and Kubernetes, provided that the device has the Docker desktop and the necessary workloads for Web development, Azure tools, and .NET Core development tools. The

Kubernetes support allows you to enable a connection between a local project and a Kubernetes cluster under Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
