I need to develop (3) projects. one desktop and two custom windows services.

Should I create a solution with 3 projects in visual studio? Or should I create 3 individual solutions?

I use git for source code control with local repository (No GitHub).

thanks for any guidance.

    Hi @Darryl Hoar ,

    Please see the description here: Solutions

    … It’s simply a container for one or more related projects, along with…

    So, if they are related, put them in the same solution. If they are not very related, create 3 individual solutions.

    Best Regards,

    Tianyu
