Professional Visual Studio 2015 1st Edition

This is a really great book about Visual Studio 2015, by far the best on the market; I know because I also bought the other two books available in December 2015.This book tells you EVERYTHING about Visual Studio for beginner to pro, from Professional and Enterprise version info, for new user to experienced professional who is upgrading to 2015; unlike competitors books that don't go into sufficient detail. It has whole chapters on unit testing, documentation, templates, setup for various application types and database types, plus much more. It is an amazing book. At over 1200 pages with smaller type, you probably won't read straight through but pick the pieces you really want.Highly recommended, must have book. Start by sitting down with it at your computer to set up Visual Studio 2015 to best meet your needs.Visual Studio is a great tool that even has a quality free community version, and now supports many open standards, not just Microsoft products. Buy this book and download Visual Studio 2015, you won't regret it.

Very informative ... but you'll be filling in the blanks with docs.microsoft.com

If you have any questions regarding Visual Studio 2015, this book is for you. The book is detailed and comprehensive. It is a great reference tool. Keep it handle when using Visual Studio 2015 for answering questions or simply to browse through it to learn something new you didn't already know.

Its a functional overview, not a beginner book. No reference section for language elements. A great deal is left out.

It simply has everything: it is the Enterprise Edition. Also, the 2015 version still has stdio.h and stddefs.h whereas, the 2019 version no longer supports them.

My major problems were getting Visual Studio setup to build and debug a C# project. These included permission errors, and greyed out debug buttons. VS is useless without knowing how to resolve installation and configuration issues. This book may be useful in the future, but has provided no value at the present time.

A must-have for any serious software author. Mandatory for anyone building C# applications...web, desktop, smartphone on any platform with any host OS.

Complete coverage of primary tool, but doesn't cover the Xamarin tools for cross-platform development - i.e. for iOS, android MacOS, etc.
