As good of a tool as VS is, I don't see how it fits with the Rpi. In my opinion, its simpler to use a text editor, because the board does not have the same complexity of .NET apps. The Rpi is programmed with Python, and their own library tat controls the I/O pins. Why add in the complexity of VS into the mix?
Plus, you can just use the IDLE. It features all the basic things you need for python development.
- bunderbunder 14y agoYour impression that the Raspberry Pi is exclusively programmed in Python and is only meant for tiny little toy projects is mistaken. It's a full-fledged computer running Linux, and will support software written using essentially any programming language. If you take a look at the linked article, for example, you'll see that the author is programming it in C++.
