C# Dev Kit for Visual Studio Code | Visual studio code

C# Dev Kit for Visual Studio Code

C# Dev Kit helps you manage your code with a solution explorer and test your code with integrated unit test discovery and execution, elevating your C# development experience wherever you like to develop (Windows, macOS, Linux, and even in a Codespace).

This extension builds on top of the great C# language capabilities provided by the C# extension and enhances your C# environment by adding a set of powerful tools and utilities that integrate natively with VS Code to help C# developers write, debug, and maintain their code faster and with fewer errors. Some of this new tooling includes but is not limited to:

C# project and solution management via an integrated solution explorer

Native testing environment to run and debug tests using the Test Explorer

Roslyn-powered language service for best in-class C# language features such as code navigation, refactoring, semantic awareness, and more

Quick Start

Install C# Dev Kit (The C# extension and the .NET Install Tool will automatically be installed).

Open a folder/workspace that contains a C# project (.csproj) and the extension will activate, or use the ".NET: New Project..." command to create a new C# project.

Check out the C# Getting Started documentation to learn more!
