Microsoft provides new details about Visual Studio 2022 release

Microsoft announced that the first public preview of Visual Studio 2022 will be released this summer.

Visual Studio 2022 will be a 64-bit application and it’ll no longer be limited to ~4gb of memory in the main devenv.exe process. However, this won’t change the types or bitness of the applications developers can build with Visual Studio and they can still build 32-bit apps., the company explained. 

“With a 64-bit Visual Studio on Windows, you can open, edit, run, and debug even the biggest and most complex solutions without running out of memory,” Amanda Silver, the CVP of product for the developer division at Microsoft, wrote in a blog post

Visual Studio 2022 also introduces a refresh for the user interface to reduce crowding and to reduce the complexity and cognitive load. The changes include updated icons for better clarity, legibility and contrast, a new fixed-width font called Cascadia Code, improved product themes and an integration with Accessibility Insights. 

In addition, Visual Studio 2022 will make it quick and easy to build modern, cloud-based applications with Azure by including repositories that describe common patterns used in today’s apps. 

Visual Studio 2022 will have full support for .NET 6 and its unified framework for web, client, and mobile apps for both Windows and Mac developers and it will also include robust support for the C++ workload with new productivity features, C++20 tooling, and IntelliSense. 

Microsoft said it focused on real-time collaboration with the release by integrating text chats in Live Share so that developers can have quick conversations about their code without any context switches. Live Share will also include session policies that define any compliance requirements for collaboration. 

The new version aims to make it easier to collaborate with better GitHub integration making it seamless to go from idea to code to the cloud. These additions include built-in logic and checkpoints to guide developers efficiently through the merge and review process. 

“Development teams have become more geographically dispersed than ever. It’s become apparent over the last year that organizations need their development teams to collaborate securely, deliver solutions more quickly, and continuously improve their end-user satisfaction and value,” Silver wrote. 

Lastly, Visual Studio for Mac is being moved to native macOS UI to improve performance and reliability and will also include all of the built-in macOS accessibility features. The new Git experience will also make its way to Visual Studio for Mac, starting with the addition of the Git Changes tool window.

Additional details on all of the new features planned for the summer preview of Visual Studio 2022 are available here.

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are dec...
