Visual Studio 2026 Made Easy: Build Real Applications with C#, VB.NET, Python, JavaScript, C++, and .NET 10, (Paperback)

The first edition of this book focused exclusively on C#. Reader feedback over the years has been consistent: 'What about VB.NET? What about Python? Can I use Visual Studio for JavaScript?' The answer to all of these is an emphatic yes - and that is precisely what this new edition sets out to demonstrate.

Visual Studio 2026 is not a C# IDE with other languages bolted on as an afterthought. It is a genuinely multi-language professional development environment that gives Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, VB.NET, C++, and F# developers the same world-class tooling it gives C# developers: IntelliSense, the debugger, the profiler, Git integration, and GitHub Copilot with its AI Agent Mode.

This edition covers all six major languages supported by Visual Studio 2026. Each language section follows the same structure: setup and project creation, language fundamentals, building a real application, and connecting to data and the web. By the end you will be comfortable switching between languages and you will understand which language to reach for on each type of project.

Happy coding.!
