Number of users an app has is a horrible way to decide whether to write it in C++ or not, and even if it were a good driver Visual Studio is a $1B business for Microsoft so it’s hardly a little niche app lacking a wide audience.
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoVS has a lot of things going on, many of the teams to specific pieces of functionality that might seem obscure to many of us. The Shell team isn’t that big from what I recall, so yes VS is a huge business but there are a lot of things going on so it’s not like everyone in devdiv is working on core VS. It is really different from a consumer office app.
