  • Microsoft is discontinuing Visual Studio for Mac after major overhaul
    I didn't know it existed. https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
  • Homebrew Is Awesome
    Most of the stuff is already available as classical UNIX, then, https://developer.apple.com/xcode/ https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download https://code.visualstudio.com/ https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/ And I am pretty much done. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
  • Can I create Windows Form with my Mac M1?
    Sorry but that’s one of the things it’s can’t do. https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/. If you scroll to the bottom that page they compare vs for Mac with the windows version so you can see how they compare. Source: 10 months ago
  • Error message in terminal
    Your code looks right I guess (been a long time since I've done C lol) so probably this means something in the build chain is broken. If this is "Visual Studio for Mac" then I think you're out of luck, as far as I can tell VS does not support C/C++ on Mac according to https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/ (VS supports C via its C++ compiler, MSVC, which is not ported to Mac). If you're in VSCode you should be... Source: 11 months ago
  • VSCode .Net Problem
    I'm not a Mac user, but Visual Studio is available for Mac - if it's anything like its Windows counterpart then it should be a lot more straightforward than trying to set up VSCode. Source: 11 months ago
  • free IDE for C# and .net
    Visual Studio 2022 for Mac is free if you make less than a million a year if I recall correctly. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Looking for suggestions on how to deploy Visual Studio through Kandji
    Not to be rude, but you're wrong: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/. Source: about 1 year ago
  • My Journey to Becoming a Full Stack Developer
    As Microsoft changed their leadership and became a heavyweight in cloud computing, in addition to the enhancements to .NET and their front-end languages (Razor, Blazor, TypeScript), the .NET stack gradually became my preference as I got older. These days I'm a Windows user and a Microsoft enthusiast, but with .NET Core and Visual Studio for Mac being released, not to mention Visual Studio Code, we could all easily... - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
  • System.Drawing doesn't work for me. Tried running without debugger, and this was the outcome. Any help is appreciated :)
    Official page said that VS for Mac not supports Windows Forms and WPF. What you trying to do? Source: over 1 year ago
  • Any way to download Windows’ Visual Studio on intel mac?
    There is a Visual Studio for Mac version, but an underlying problem is .NET Framework as it officially doesn't run on anything that's not Windows, you could try using Mono with VS or it's accompanying MonoDevelop instead but I've never had a great or even good experience using it. Source: over 1 year ago
  • What kind of code editor to use on a mac?
    I used to use Visual Studio for Mac when I had a Mac: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/ and if you do move over to Windows like I did, you can use your existing projects with Visual Studio Enterprise as well. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Reasons why a Mac wouldn’t work for the gaming industry?
    Proper Visual Studio doesn't work on a mac. Your options are the .NET only MonoDevelop reskin or VSCode which are both very different bits of software. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Does Linux and Ubuntu run well on the M1 Macbook Pro?
    In what feels like a bizarre alternative timeline, Visual Studio now runs on Mac too. Source: over 1 year ago
  • T14 g3 vs T14s g3 less fan noise?
    All they mentioned is Visual Studio which happens to natively support Apple Silicon. And wanting something quiet (which MacBooks also are). I can only give a recommendation based on the information in front of me, sorry. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Windows 11 on ARM on macOS on M1 MacBook – cold boot to running Visual Studio
    I do not know whether it’s a port, but there’s https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
  • this sub in a nutshell
    Visual Studio for Mac should make things easier. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Programming on the newest Macbook Air
    Visual Stuido did have a mac version and I think you could do programming of C++ just fine on Mac. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Apple getting a tad too cocky with M2
    You clearly didn't read the first paragraph of the blog post or click the first link. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Is it just me, or is learning C# in a mac environment a semi-nightmare?
    VS for Mac is years old. It started life as Xamarin Studio, which itself was a fork of MonoDevelop, but at this point they're in the middle of the 2nd rewrite for the 2022 preview so it's nothing like it used to be. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • when your friend is a C# dev
    Seems to be available on Mac now https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/. Source: about 2 years ago
  • Developers slam Apple for creating 'insane' barriers to access outside payment providers in the App Store
    Https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/ specifically says you cannot develop Windows apps. Try again? Source: about 2 years ago
