If you’ve ever wanted to create your own mobile apps, websites, or desktop software, there’s a good chance you’ve heard of Visual Studio. Whether you’re a new dev or an experienced Visual Studio user, you should check out StackSocial’s deal on Visual Studio Pro. Through July 5, you can get a lifetime license to Visual Studio Professional 2022 for only $35. A Visual Studio Pro subscription regularly costs $45/month, so this is a really great deal.
Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 is a 64-bit IDE (integrated development environment) used for making apps, webpages, and more. It supports multiple programming languages and platforms, including C#, C++, .NET, Node.js, JavaScript/TypeScript, and Python. The Professional build also has more features and an expanded license compared to the free Visual Studio Community version.
While the free Community version is intended for students and educators working on educational projects and small non-enterprise organizations creating open-source apps, Microsoft Visual Studio Pro is licensed for individuals and enterprise organizations making commercial and non-open-source projects, so it’s the ideal choice for independent developers who want a robust development environment. Check Microsoft’s official page for the full feature list and comparisons to other versions.
