A .Net Programmer S Point Of View On Visual Studio 2012

Submitted by: Mitesh Aegis

Much has been talked about the newest version of .Net Framework 4.5 and there are plenty of good reasons that even dozens of articles is not enough to cover what this framework offers. .Net programmers have much to discuss, share and engage within the .Net community about the various benefits that Asp.net Development offers. It is definitely not a small release with few upgrades because .Net framework 4.5 is definitely quite huge. It offers so many features at so many different verticals that it is not possible to talk about all of them in just one go or through one article. I guess this is the reason why other enthusiastic .Net programmers like me are so excited and can t keep themselves from letting the world know what .Net framework 4.5 offers.

It is definitely unrealistic for every .Net programmers to know all the features that .Net framework 4.5 offers and as a .Net programmer I surely do not claim to be an expert on every little nuance of .Net platform. Undoubtedly, .Net is such a vast platform that it is not even humanly possible to master everything. However, of late I have been playing around with the new version of Visual Studio 2012 that comes along with the latest upgrade of .Net 4.5 framework and here is what I gathered.

If .net programmers are looking to create Windows 8 applications, then they would definitely need .Net 4.5 because this is a subset of .Net for Windows store. ASP.Net and Visual Studio 2012 both are compatible with HTML5 and CCS3 and therefore .Net programmers can conveniently build Windows 8 applications utilizing these languages. Also, the .Net Framework 4.5 offers support for web sockets and can also bundle JavaScript libraries.

Visual Studio Ultimate 2012 is known for its performance enhancement features such as helping the .Net programmers by reducing the clutter of their workspace. This means that Asp.net Development will be able to focus better on their work without all the clutter. Also, Visual Studio 2012 also starts faster than Visual Studio 2010 and which is definitely a very good thing. It is now possible for the IDE to conveniently load solutions asynchronously. As a .Net programmer, I personally love the clutter part not being there anymore because for one my workspace doesn t look that crowded and secondly the IDE now opens with fewer windows such as classes, errors, server explorer etc.

Besides the clutter, what also caught my attention and I m sure many .Net programmers will agree with me is that Visual Studio 2012 also includes Silverlight, LightSwitch and Expression Blend. LightSwitch and Silverlight are project types while Expression Blend features as a separate application in the Visual Studio 2012 directory. From my point of view as a .Net programmer, these are just some of the initial features that caught my attention and I m sure on my exploration of Visual Studio 2012, I m going to come across a lot more features that are sure going to be a boon to .Net programmers working on this amazing platform.
