    Creating a shared Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) or Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) specifically for Visual Studio users is not explicitly supported according to the available resources. Azure Virtual Desktop allows for the deployment of Windows desktops and applications, but the context does not provide specific information about shared environments tailored for Visual Studio users. It does mention that Azure Virtual Desktop integrates with Microsoft 365 and offers enterprise-level manageability, which could imply potential for shared use, but it does not confirm the viability of a dedicated shared VDI/AVD for Visual Studio development.

    If you are looking for collaboration features, Visual Studio does offer tools like Live Share that allow real-time collaborative development, but this is separate from the VDI/AVD infrastructure itself.
