Learn features of the Visual Studio debugger and how to start the debugger, step through code, and inspect data in a C# application.
If you're running your project through VS, you should not need to attach anything
Did you just open a loose
Program.cs file?
what do you mean by loose?
Not a
.csproj project or a .sln solutionit was sln
VS will open C# files on their own, sure
Aight, that's odd, then
Do you see the solution explorer?
I don't
No solution explorer on the right of the screen in VS?
there is
Empty, though
yes
It seems you didn't add a project to the solution, somehow
Is that even possible
Apparently ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Right-click on the solution and try to add an existing project
Then add your project
right clck, then add
still empty
.-.
Existing project, not a new project
it gives me an error
huh
So... do you, by chance, not have the SDK installed... somehow?
dotnet --list-sdks in the consoleI have no clue
I am downloading it
I managed it
I guess...
is that what it should look like?
ye
Thanks then
