This is great for people heavily invested in the .NET world. I like the integration with VS, and with the language overall.
We worked with a small vendor on a project at work last year, where he was building a frontend for our gRPC based backend system. My team inherited him from another division that was winding down, and though he had weird choices of tooling and frameworks, we couldn't dictate what he used as that was out of our control.
What we imposed though was that he only use gRPC to communicate with our services. He struggled a lot, I spent about an hour with him trying to compile the proto files. He also weirdly converted every message to JSON then XML. I assumed he'd been used to covering from JSON to XML. In the end, we had a poor experience and decided to rebuild the thing in-house.
My observations were that other than unfamiliarity with gRPC, he knows his way around MS stuff, the lack of seamless integration with his technology stack.
This integration should make it easier for people to get productive faster, and for new users to experiment.
