Very amaying new features in 17.5! Thanks to tghe whole team for making this possible and I'm looking forward for all features that are coming. 😀

I really appreciate the effort put by both Microsoft and the hosts into spreading the word on what it is, in my opinion, an excellent development environment.
Making the exposition casual is the way to go, but all hosts should be aware that it's in their best interest not to use "clutch phrases" such as "you know" and "and stuff" to an extent where it detracts from the content being exposed. Just a gentle reminder from someone that is not a native English speaker, but loves the language more than its own.

You are having video of showing features in 17.5 but you are talking about some features which will be available in 17.6?

[Arcadenut]

So the best features you showed are not in 17.5.... but will be in 17.6...

I love this update. Build time is significantly faster and now we can manage and store REST queries in our codebase. No more managing Postman collections.

16:42 Just like (or even more functional than) freezing rows and/or columns in a spreadsheet.👍
Edit: 18:51 Ahah, - it's called sticky scroll.

[vivekkaushik]

I'd really apreciate if VS team can upload these videos in FHD and 2K. Its difficult to read code in 720p.

How to enable the sticky scroll? Normally Microsoft Visual Studio show how you would do it but now...

I jumped recently from VS 2019 to VS 2022 and I love predictive code suggestion. But sometimes it is getting in a way of code snippets. Only way to circumvent it I found so far is to press Tab quicker than predictive code suggestion popup. cw snippet in particular is what i use all the time. Any better solutions?

I've been using Mads' Add New Item File extension for months. Now that Quick Add Item has been improved to incorporate the same functionality (with the ability to go back to the class Add Item dialog), should I remove Mads's extension?

[ferdinandocavaliere]

Change the video title to "what's new in visual studio 17.6" 😅 I love visual studio but showing features not yet present is torture

[jeffafaaah]

How to enable Brace Level Highlighting?? Cant find it anywhere??

[anandshindey]

Will the search enable us to find zero reference properties and methods?

[jj-icejoe]

More telemetry and theft of personal data?

[cypher]

Looks like Visual Studio is slowly catching up to Rider 🫢
