Coding: A form of technological witchcraft or the key to building your own websites, apps, and games? While it may feel like the former if you’re new to development, it’s really the latter once you have your bearings on the art form. If you could use a little help getting there, you might want to try Microsoft Visual Studio.
It’s a development environment with tools that are kind to beginners and pros, and it’s only $29.99 for Windows devices when you use code MASH15 through March 26, a code you’ll only find on Mashable.
A fully featured environment for your coding projects
Think of Microsoft Visual Studio as the sketchbook for your websites, apps, games, or other projects — write code, experiment with new functions, debug, and test your programs, all within one environment. Start with your preferred programming language with support for C#, F#, C++, Python, Visual Basic, .NET MAUI, JavaScript, and more.
As you type, Visual Studio’s IntelliSense helps you understand code context with highlighted and named variables. It might also help you decide which section to write next, auto-complete lines or blocks of code, and spot bugs so you can crush them right away.
The Windows tool is also loaded with collaboration features like real-time sharing, recent changes, authors, tests, and commit history. You could also create editing or debugging cycles for collaborators with personalized sessions, access controls, and custom editor settings.
Just make sure your Windows PC is compatible
Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing software and hardware requirements to make sure your PC is equipped for the job. Most notably, your computer should have Windows 10 or 11, a minimum 4GB of RAM, and at least 850MB of hard disk space.
