✅ Visual Studio Projects
Hello! I want to start over with programming my first application and I already run in some troubles. Basically every Tutorial on YouTube, which shows me how to create a project, is so different in terms of the visual studio version they use. I just can't figure out how to start.
Hopefully someone can show me the basics, which are necassary to create a project. 😄

Different how?
Basically they always get the screen where they can choose what they want to do. Create project, etc.
Could it be the tutorial has something like
while yours has
?
When I open the Visual Studio I'm already in the editor
Ah
Is it Visual Studio?
Or Visual Studio Code?
this one
They are different
🤯
So I guess I need the first one, you said?
Yes
Visual Studio 2022 Community is what you want
It's better for learning too, VS Code can be... temperametal, and needs a lot of tinkering to make it usable
It took me like 3 hours to create a project for coding some stuff in the console -.-
searching through the internet like hours xD
For reference, making a project in VS Code is not hard either
:harold:
while with visual studio its mostly with a visual wizard
imo vs code requires u to be a more curious and problem solving person
ye
I'm ready now. I'm installing Visual Studio now. I'm so ready
But the thing is, i was looking for 'visual studio code frame application project' and the only thing I see is stuff from this
Maybe Google got confused by "frame application project" because I never heard those words in this order
even I am confused by code frame
Maybe my translation is rigged, English isn't my main language
and what is it in your language?
🙂
maybe we can try to make sense of it
German
ok but i mean the text in your language
I guess "framework" was translated to "code frame"...?
Create your First C# .NET Windows forms application is most like the title. So i took forms application and put project behind. cause i wanted to know how to create a project
this is for your self or school?
if its for your self while winforms is indeed easy I would strongly advise u to learn WPF or Avalonia instead
there is more value to the later 2
Nah not for school. I'm interested in learning this language.
but either way before u jump into ui
its better you learn the language with console
otherwise u will be very lost
Starting your C# adventure with a Winforms project will quickly make you look for different adventures
😂
Any GUI project, really
They're complex beasts
Even more so for someone who hasn't learned what an object or a lambda are
its like the old saying
u have to learn how to walk before u run
I want to try it. I worked on a simple ui with java swing for like 3 weeks. It was hard, but it was fun. I had no knowledge about swing back then. I only did other stuff in java
mh :/ you guys make me confused 😂
it just means u have to start from the start... starting by learning winforms is not simple without the fundamental learning of the language
Whatever decision I will take, it's good to know that I need a other programm to startover 🙂
at the very least know all of what is taught in these videos very well https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/shows/csharp-fundamentals-for-absolute-beginners/
C# Fundamentals for Absolute Beginners
Learn C# programming from an expert in the industry. Get the tools, see how to write code, debug features, explore customizations, and more. For newer videos head over to dot.net/videos
So I should start playing around in the console?
yes
you learn by using console then u do some projects in console
then u start climbing up
by doing projects u see how well you're understanding everything being taught to u
programming is a lot of repetition and making things click
The only thing 'project' I've done so far in c#, was a higher/lower game in console. It has a few parallels to java. But I get your point
Alright I'm really thankful that you guys helped me out. I don't know how to close the "ticket" here in the help forum. I guess we will stay in contact here on the discord 🙂
