Installing necessary developer tools

C-Sharp Learning Part 1


So in this article we are going to learn how to build our first C# app in Windows. There are many compilers which you can use. But I recommend using Visual Studio.

So we are gonna be using .Net Framework & .Net (previously known as .Net Core).

Please note we are going to be building a Windows Forms Application a graphical user interface which can be used to create classic Windows Desktop Apps.

So before getting started you need to install Visual Studio 2022 Community which is completely free.

Link to download Visual Studio 2022 Community: Click Here

After downloading the setup file and running it you are presented with this screen:

just click continue!


In the "Available" tab just select Visual Studio Community 2022 and get it installed.
After installing it, you will be presented with this screen: If you're not then you will need to click on the Modify button in the above screenshot under the name Visual Studio 2022 Community.





Select .NET desktop development and Universal Windows Platform Development if you want to develop apps for the Microsoft Store and just click install.
Wait until it finishes installing!

After it finishes installing head over to Part 2
