Visual Studio Smackdown: PPT From: Love Shah

Microsoft Visual Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) that can be downloaded for free. As an IDE, it allows programmers to implement databases, design user interfaces, program applications, test and debug code, and create diagrams all in one tool. Visual Studio supports many programming languages like C#, which it notably supports and is widely used to develop desktop, web, and web service applications. Visual Studio is useful for programmers as it allows graphical user interface building via both code and drag-and-drop features. It also helps maintain motivation for programming tasks by enabling quick prototyping of visual interfaces to complement code. The IDE has benefited the author as a computer science student by helping improve programming skills and understand applications from different perspectives.

MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO
• Microsoft Visual Studio is an IDE.
• Integrated Development Environment
• It’s an application that is downloadable for free.
• An IDE allows you to do many different things and integrate them.
• From implementing databases, designing user graphics user interfaces, programming
applications, testing and debugging applications, creating diagrams, this tool has it all for a
programmer in the computer science field.
PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES
• Visual Studio supports most programming languages.
• When you start the application for the first time, it asks you what type of project you want to create and
which language that you want to use.
• It’s your choice, whatever your best at is your best bet!
• The programming language that it notably supports is C#.
• C# is one of my favorite languages, while most people would say Java and Python, I prefer C#.
• C# is widely used for developing desktop applications, web applications, and web services.
• Microsoft basically coined the language and it’s used in creating their applications on the large scale.
WHAT'S SO SPECIAL ABOUT VISUAL
STUDIO?

• Visual Studio is an IDE that supports GUI building, this is down with not only code but with ‘drag
and drop’, you’ll see what I mean when I do the screen recording.

• Visual Studio also supports editing the code that you “drag and drop”. So if you are a visual learner,
you can set up an outline before digging in.

• It’s personally my favorite to use because of Windows Forms.


• Windows Forms is a free and open source GUI class library, its included with Visual Studio, and it creates a
visual image in the head before you get down to the code. Whenever I’m having trouble with programming
an application, I just jump on Visual Studio and throw something together to try and get a feel to it.
BENEFITS:
• Visual Studio has helped me in many ways. As a computer science major, just looking at code all day long doing assignments
gets boring and its easy to lose track of focus with a bunch of text and no visual interface.

• I’ve always enjoyed programming and this program has helped me become better at what I intend to do after graduating. I
want to be a software programmer. It goes hand in hand. There is backend and frontend, backend is the code segment that the
user/customer doesn’t see, the frontend is the graphics user interface (GUI) that you see and utilize.

• Visual studio has helped my professional career because when I’ve lost motivation with a program, I always find some
motivation to hop onto visual studio and to create a quick visual gui which will help me understand the goal of my program
and to debug it.

• There are times when staring down at a long list of code (Shown on next slide as example) gets overwhelming so its nice to
take a step back and to look at it from another angle.

SUMMARY
Microsoft Visual Studio is an IDE. An IDE is an Integrated Development Environment. It’s an application that is downloadable for free , an IDE allows you to do
many different things and integrate them. Visual Studio usage ranges from implementing databases, designing user graphics user interfaces, programming applications,
testing and debugging applications, creating diagrams, and much more This tool has it all for a programmer in the computer science field. Visual Studio supports most
programming languages. When the application is started for the first time, the application asks the type of project that is being created, along with the language desired
to program with. Its use friendly and decision based. The programming language that it notably supports is C#. C# is one of my favorite languages, while most people
would say Java and Python, I prefer C#. C# is widely used for developing desktop applications, web applications, and web services. Microsoft basically coined the
language and it’s used in creating their applications on the large scale. Visual Studio is an IDE, which means that it also includes GUI building, this is not only code
but also with “drag and drop” properties and visual properties. Visual studio supports editing the code that is also “dragged and dropped”. It may be a visual learner’s
best friend. It has helped me in many ways.

Visual Studio has helped me become a better programmer. It’s my favorite to use because of Windows Forms. Windows Forms is a free and open source GUI
class library, this means that it’s a free graphical user interface designer template. It creates a visual image in the head before the code is modified. Whenever I find a
problem with an application I’m working on, I just jump on Visual Studio and throw something together to try and to get a feel for it. As a computer science major,
looking at code all day long can be overwhelming and repetitive, it can even get boring at times. Its easy to lose track of focus and motivation. This is notably present
when all that is seen is text, user interfaces help prevent that, at least for me. I’ve always enjoyed programming and this program has helped me become better at what I
intend to do after graduating. I want to be a software programmer; it goes hand in hand. Software has two sides, backend and frontend, backend is the code segment
that the user/customer doesn’t see directly. The frontend is the graphical user interface that the user sees and interacts with, utilizing the different parts of the
application. Visual Studio is a great application and a programmer’s best friend. I highly recommend it.
