Question

I have heard about Visual Studio . Net 2015 for Ubuntu
I can\'t find anything useful online yet
Can you please help me install this version on ubuntu li

Answer 1

You can try wine, but it probably wont work very well.

Visual Studio Code isn't a full IDE and I hate it, but you can try it.

You could use a virtual machine with windows on it, or you could look at other programs that are similar. For example I use pycharm, because I generally work in python.

Answer 2

Visual Studio Code isn't an IDE like Visual Studio

Instead, it's a modified version of ATOM which is a text editor. It lacks almost everything from the original Visual Studio. By now, Visual Studio 2015 isn't properly working under WinE. Maybe a test can be done using the ISO instead of the web installer. Make ISO installer work under WinE it's your only option to get Visual Studio under Linux.

Answer 3

You can try Wine, but per the Wine application database, Visual Studio generally works poorly under Wine use this link

Answer 5

As far as I know, no Visual Studio can be run in the LINUX or UBUNTU version.It only can run in Windows

Answer 6

Microsoft have released a cut down version for Linux https://code.visualstudio.com/ its simply called visual studio code! Then you have to install additional components such as ASP.NET version 5 which you can download from the same link. In my own experience I installed all of these and the program worked fine. That is until it was time to reboot my Linux Mint v 17.2 system. I use an encrypted drive and was able to enter my password to unencrypt my drive, but then after entering my userpassword my system crashed and went into a loop which I couldnt get out of. So I had to boot from a USB stick with Mint on it and unencrypt the drive from there to remove Visual Studio Code and its components just to access my system again so beware - there is a major bug here which needs fixing.
