I am trying DESPERATELY to do this example project, but the information is all related to Visual Studio 2013. Are there any updates to create it in Visual Studio 2022?

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/web-forms/overview/getting-started/getting-started-with-aspnet-45-web-forms/shopping-cart

I tried to make the necessary adjustments to fit the 2022 version, but i can't figure it out and, therefore, cannot get moving with this project.

I found other sample projects in 2022, but they are not as complicated as this example. I would really, really like to do this, but i can't figure out how to get started. I am willing to pay as-needed!

Thanks so much,
Maureen

    Hi @maureen flannery ,
    Web Forms is an older technology, but it still works.
    You can follow the tutorial and try to create a new project in VS2022.
    If you encounter specific problems, you can post for help.
    You can refer to the following items:

    As noted, even vs2022 edition should have no issues, no troubles supporting, creating and working with a asp.net web forms application.

    While webforms are older, the brand new vs2022 has FULL support for such applications, and that is a credit to vs2022.

    However, out of the box, vs2022 is a REALLY large system. As a result, the default install does NOT have the correct parts installed for webforms.

    So, you want from vs2022 to go tools->Get Tools and features.

    Then expand this option:

    And now select these:

    And there might be a few I missed. However, if you select the above, then all of the web forms stuff should be available, and you not find any real difference then using the 10 year old vs 2013 in 2023!!

    Select the options I have in above - even select the ones that I not pointed to with arrows.

    Once you do this, then you can follow that article, and use vs2022, and do so without that article requiring any changes.
