Introducing The .NET Coding Pack for VS Code - Getting Started with C# for Beginners
Are you trying to learn to code? Or perhaps you're an educator or a student, or you know someone who us? Sometimes it's intimidating when you consider all the things to install and run to get started.
Well, we've created a series of all-in-one installers - coding packs - that will set you up in Python, Java, or as of today - C# and .NET!
Check out http://dot.net/learntocode and https://code.visualstudio.com/learntocode
I'm happy to announce our preview of the .NET Coding Pack. You can grab it at http://dot.net/learntocode! We have a .NET Coding Pack for Windows and a .NET Coding Pack for Mac.
When you're done installing, just press Finish and Visual Studio Code will launch into this .NET Interactive Notebook!
It's like Microsoft Word, except some of the paragraphs are words and some of the paragraphs (called "cells") are code you can run!
Consider this a Beta Release as we want feedback and bugs from you!
We'll be developing notebooks and courseware but more importantly YOU can also make .NET Interactive Notebooks and share them on GitHub!
You can add Markdown (text) or add Code, and then share them with your friends or students!
NOTE: If you are a pro dev and already have Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code installed, you don't need to get this coding pack. The pack installs these things, locally, as anon admin user. You can just add the ones you don't have.
- Install the latest Visual Studio Code.
- Install the latest .NET 5 SDK
- Install the .NET Interactive Notebooks extension from the marketplace.
- Download our Getting Started with C# Notebook and open it in VS Code.
