Hi Team,

I have a requirement where I need to install Visual Studio on one of my machine and build an application, and manually deploy the application to Azure App service.
For above requirement, out of 3 Visual Studio editions (community, enterprise and Professional) which one shall I chose and why? Please note I need to make sure it costs less.
Also, please let me know which Visual studio version (2019/22) shall I purchase, Applications that I need to build are having .Net earlier versions as well as .Net core versions also.

Please let me know if any other Information required.

Thanks,
Salil

    Hi @salilsingh-9961

    Regarding "requirement where I need to install Visual Studio on one of my machine and build an application, and manually deploy the application to Azure App service" , any of those editions of Visual Studio will offer that. You can also do that with VS Code

    In terms of cost, Community is mostly free:

    Just make sure you tick this while installing:

    Regarding 2019 or 2022, you probably want the latest. You can still create/maintain same .Net versions as 2019
