What's the difference between VS Express and Community/Professional (MFC only?)?

You can load plugins and set a 'start up' program in project properties (rather than hacking the xml build file), source control and other goodies.

I'll never have to add a 'Create GUID' menu item to Express again!  :-D



No seriously, haven't actually seen this yet (work's been crazy!); does it come with obfuscation as well (or is that Ultimate only?)?

Cheers

Now, having had a chance to read up on this a bit, it sounds great for individual developers, frankly.

I've been using Ultimate for no other reason than I can thanks to BizSpark, and that I wanted to use something more complete than Express which is all that I had used previously (to build installers, test obfuscation, etc.). :-D

Community, not only provides a bit more via IDE, but also supports mobile platforms natively, allows extensions, and provides basic obfuscation... Not sure what else an individual developer really needs... Can't wait to see why they're really giving away the farm in the coming weeks, months. :whistling:

I don't know how to tell you guys this so I'm just going to say it. *snicker*

I downloaded Community and when I launched it I was offered a choice of light or dark theme (of course I chose dark) and I know for a fact that the dark theme is based on a color theme originally build for Vim. *laugh* I mean don't feel bad though guys; the Solarized theme has been ported to a bunch of other editors and VS is only 9th in the list. *choke*

But seriously, check out the developers page on the theme.

Start coding the app of your dreams for Windows, Android, and iOS.
So it will build Android and IOS apps?
If that's the case then probably trying make it where Android and iOS developers can build apps for Windows.
