Visual Studio Professional 2019

With Visual Studio 2019, you’ll get best-in-class tools and services for any developer, any app, and any platform. Whether you’re using Visual Studio for the first time or you’ve been using it for years, there’s a lot to like in our current version!

Here’s a high-level recap of what’s new, all-up:

Develop: Stay focused and productive with improved performance, instant code cleanup, and better search results.
Collaborate: Enjoy natural collaboration through a Git-first workflow, real-time editing and debugging, and code reviews right in Visual Studio.
Debug: Highlight and navigate to specific values, optimize memory use, and take automatic snapshots of your application’s execution.

Code cleanup
Paired with a new document health indicator is a new code cleanup command. You can use this new command to identify and then fix both warnings and suggestions with a single action (or click of a button).

The cleanup will format the code and apply any code fixes as suggested by the current settings and .editorconfig files.

Per-monitor aware (PMA) rendering
If you use monitors that are configured with different display scale factors, or connect remotely to a machine with display scale factors that are different from your main device, you might notice that Visual Studio looks blurry or renders at the wrong scale.

With the release of Visual Studio 2019, we’re making Visual Studio a per-monitor aware (PMA) application. Now, Visual Studio renders correctly regardless of the display scale factors you use.

Test Explorer
New in 16.2: We’ve updated Test Explorer to provide better handling of large test sets, easier filtering, more discoverable commands, tabbed playlist views, and customizable columns that let you fine-tune what test information is displayed.
