Episode 1 Installing Visual Studio 2022 for ASP.NET Core MVC

[Music] hi and welcome to building a website using visual studio 2022 my name is trevor smith and i'm going to take you through a number of tutorials that will get you building a website using this software this first video is going to be really about installing the correct software i have built this specifically for my students but if you've found me through youtube you're more than welcome to follow along okay so without further ado i'm going to take you to the first page which is the um the main website for visual studio so visual studio 2022 came out in early uh november um visual studio has been around for quite a few years but i'm not going to give you the history you can look that up on on the internet there are three specific versions of visual studio available now so we've got visual studio for windows that's this one here okay and that is the one that i'll be using mainly there is a visual studio for a mac for any mac users out there and also visual studio for visual studio code which is geared for windows mac os and also linux it's a kind of a scaled-down version of visual studio and i would say less intuitive to use so it can be a little bit more fiddly but what we're going to do is we're going to go straight on to visual studio for windows there are again three versions of this we've got the community version we've got the professional version and we've got the enterprise version what i'm going to do is i'm going to go to another page just to show you the differences between these three versions so i'm going to go to the downloads page if i just scroll down a little bit and go to compare you'll see that we've actually got three um three columns here um the community version is geared more for students and kind of like the hobbyists or even somebody who's working on their own the professional version is geared more for businesses or rather small to medium-sized businesses and then you've got the enterprise version which is all the bells and whistles which is good for large organizations as you can see the dots on the screen here represent uh just what you're going to be getting so if you look at the enterprise for example all the dots are filled which is what you kind of expect for that kind of purchase the visual studio professional is also a purchase product um it's kind of on par with the community and the community as i say is free to download so we're going to download that one now one of the things i will draw your attention to you can actually press on these pluses to see what you're actually getting so um in terms of like for example if you look at this we're actually getting less as we move from right to left okay so it does tend to scale up from left to right one of the things that i did find quite disappointing was the fact that you don't get so many test tools in the visual studio community or professional as you do with the enterprise okay like i said i'm going to download this now so you can do that just by clicking on this button here now whilst it's downloading it'll actually take you to a thank you page which will give you some information about uh what you are about to install on your computer um there's a an installation section here which you don't really need because i'm going to take you through that getting started with visual studio might be handy but again i'm going to go through quite a lot of that as well building your theme to make visual studio look and feel the way you want is good and then you've got a number of tutorials the areas that i'm going to be looking at mainly is going to be the net in particular with web and cloud development using asp.net core but i'm just going to go through all of these so we've got xamarin which is for mobile apps you've got unity for games uh you've got ml.net which is machine learning and then we can go down further we've now got c plus plus i'll skip past the c plus plus we've also got python if you want to use python uh javascript and typescript typescript is a kind of javascript made by microsoft node.js which is also javascript these are javascript okay and then you've also got expand your visual studio skill by area so you can look at develop build version control deploy extend data debug collaborate and also devops well i can see that the software has now downloaded so i'm just going to go on to that page a moment so i'm just going to let it load there you go okay so now that we're on this screen i'm just going to remove the browser from the back this is the area that we want to focus on this visual studio installer there's a couple of um statements and policies that you can have a look at if you want i'm just going to skip those so i'm going to hit continue and download the installer now you do need to be careful with the installer you don't go clicking everything so we've got the installer in place and if you look down here on the right you can actually see that it's already got some stuff to install what i'm going to do is i'm going to pick items that are going to be specific to the task that you're going to be carrying out over the course of the next few weeks so asp.net and web development is a must so you must click that one and if you notice when i clicked it it shows exactly what you're going to get on the right hand side there are also some optional extras if you want to use those i'm not going to select those for today you can actually select them later on if you want um there are a couple of other areas as your development python development and node development as well we don't need any of those for what we're going to be doing i'll just scroll down and show you so those are all web and cloud under desktop and mobile we have mobile development which as i understand is actually taking a big change next year so i'll be looking out for that uh net desktop development is an area i spend an awful lot of time doing and i will be producing some uh videos around c-sharp so uh look out for those um this is development uh sorry desktop development with c plus plus you've got universal windows platform development and also another mobile development this time using c plus plus um few gamers that likes to design your own games we've got unity which is really cool you can also do games development using c plus if you click on this option here and finally we've got under other tool sets we've got data storage and processing you've got data science and analytical applications visual studio extension development office sharepoint development and also linux development with c plus so those are the um the workloads that you can install just down here it's actually showing me where i'm going to be installing the software you can see it's going to go onto the main hard drive okay another area that you will need to go to is individual components so as i said to you a lot of these things are actually bulk together in workloads but there are a few things that are actually uh required from the individual components section so i'm just going to scroll down past the net stuff i'm going to go past cloud database and server don't need any of those because we've already got them ticked the ones that we need so i'm gonna go past those now the thing we do well i i you don't necessarily need it but i certainly like having it it's the class designer so we're gonna have that in place and also the help viewer the help viewer will give you some documents that you can use on the fly to support you um in developing your skills um there's nothing else we're going to need but i'll just scroll through passive so we've got compilers here we've also got debugging and testing here uh development activities emulators games and graphics sdks okay we will be covering these things in other lesson groups but they're not particularly important in this um in this application right you'll now see that the total space required has now gone up to 6.69 i'm okay with that i'm gonna accept that and go forward now the other thing to notice is this will install world downloading um you can choose to download all then install but i actually find that install while downloading just takes less time so i'm just going to do that now and i'll play a little bit of music whilst it's downloading [Music] [Music] there you go okay so if you got to this stage you've successfully installed visual studio 2022 and you'll be ready for the next video okay so thank you very much if you like what you've seen um please subscribe and like and by all means
