Is Open Website Feature, Available in Visual Studio For MAC?


I have been a seasoned .Net + Azure developer with master over all short-cuts & popular extensions available. I use Visual Studio even for Node Js development. I am trying to make a switch to MAC which seems impossible :-(

Quite surprised that even basic options like Open WebSite has been missing in Visual Studio For MAC.

Has any of expert community member here, tried switching to VS for MAC and found a way to open website written in Angular or React?


Solution

  • As Microsoft's website states, Visual Studio for Mac is a completely new IDE which needs a lot of development before you should use it for your real projects.

    I would highly recommend to run a virtual Windows machine (or even Windows itself) on your Mac. You could try though, to use Visual Studio Code with AngularJS on your Mac.

    Edit 08.03.2018: by now Microsoft has done a lot for Visual Studio Mac. What you want will probably work.
