I want VS to let me write code. I want to find and manipulate text. I want it to compile fast and produce relevant warnings. I want a debugger. I want it to host duiverse plugins. That's mostly it.
That's all I want Visual Studio for, too. Fortunately those things will continue to work and we can continue to ignore things like TFS and mstest.
- jmcqk6 13y agoIt would be really nice if you could strip the things out of VS that you don't want. For me, all I really want is the code editor, R#, NCrunch, nuget, and the debugger. There might be a few other things that I didn't think of right away. I personally prefer to do source code management (git) outside of the IDE, because I find visual studio doesn't tend to make good choices about what should be controlled. If I could make VS just do those things and nothing else, that would be really nice.
