Formerly known as Quick Launch, our new search experience is faster and more effective. Now, search results appear dynamically as you type. And, search results can often include keyboard shortcuts for commands, so that you can memorize them for future use.

The new fuzzy search logic will find anything you need, regardless of typos. So, whether you're looking for commands, settings, documentation, or other useful things, the new search feature makes it easier to find what you're looking for.

For more information, see Use Visual Studio search.

Intelligent search service

New in 16.9: By using cloud-powered technology, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, we've improved our search results. Now, not only does search in Visual Studio produce more relevant results, but it can also help you discover product features more easily, too.

For more information, see the Intelligent Visual Studio search service blog post.

Refactorings

There are lots of new and highly useful refactorings in C# that make it easier to organize your code. They show up as suggestions in the light bulb and include actions such as moving members to interface or base class, adjusting namespaces to match folder structure, convert foreach-loops to Linq queries, and more.

Simply invoke the refactorings by pressing Ctrl+. and selecting the action you want to take.

IntelliCode

Visual Studio IntelliCode enhances your software development efforts by using artificial intelligence (AI). IntelliCode trains across 2,000 open-source projects on GitHub—each with over 100 stars—to generate its recommendations.

Here are a few ways that Visual Studio IntelliCode can help enhance your productivity:

  • Deliver context-aware code completions
  • Guide developers to adhere to the patterns and styles of their team
  • Find difficult-to-catch code issues
  • Focus code reviews by drawing attention to areas that really matter

We initially supported only C# when we first previewed the IntelliCode as an extension for Visual Studio. Now, new in 16.1, we've added support for C# and XAML "in-the-box". (Support for C++ and TypeScript/JavaScript are still in preview, however.)

And if you're using C#, we've also added the ability to train a custom model on your own code.

For more information about IntelliCode, see the Announcing the general availability of IntelliCode plus a sneak peek and Code more, scroll less with Visual Studio IntelliCode blog posts.

Code cleanup

Paired with a new document health indicator is a new code cleanup command. You can use this new command to identify and then fix both warnings and suggestions with a single action (or click of a button).

The cleanup will format the code and apply any code fixes as suggested by the current settings and .editorconfig files.

You can also save collections of fixers as a profile. For example, if you have a small set of targeted fixers that you apply frequently while you code, and then you have another comprehensive set of fixers to apply before a code review, you can configure profiles to address these different tasks.

Per-monitor aware (PMA) rendering

If you use monitors that are configured with different display scale factors, or connect remotely to a machine with display scale factors that are different from your main device, you might notice that Visual Studio looks blurry or renders at the wrong scale.

With the release of Visual Studio 2019, we're making Visual Studio a per-monitor aware (PMA) application. Now, Visual Studio renders correctly regardless of the display scale factors you use.

For more information, see the Better multi-monitor experience with Visual Studio 2019 blog post.

Test Explorer

New in 16.2: We've updated Test Explorer to provide better handling of large test sets, easier filtering, more discoverable commands, tabbed playlist views, and customizable columns that let you fine-tune what test information is displayed.

.NET Core

New in 16.3: We've included support for .NET Core 3.0. Cross-platform, open source—and fully supported by Microsoft.

For more information, see the Announcing .NET Core 3.0 blog post.

Collaborate

Git-first workflow

Something you'll notice when you open Visual Studio 2019 is its new start window.

The start window presents you with several options to get you to code quickly. We've placed the option to clone or check out code from a repo, first.

The start window also includes options to open a project or solution, open a local folder, or create a new project.

For more information, see the Get to code: How we designed the new Visual Studio start window blog post.

Git productivity

New in 16.8: Git is now the default version control experience in Visual Studio 2019. We have built out the feature set and iterated on it based on your feedback during the past two releases. The new experience has now been turned on by default for everyone. From the new Git menu, you can clone, create, or open repositories. Use the integrated Git tool windows to commit and push changes to your code, manage branches, stay up to date with your remote repositories, and resolve merge conflicts.

For more information, see the Git experience in Visual Studio page.

Live Share

Visual Studio Live Share is a developer service that allows you to share a codebase and its context with a teammate and get instant bidirectional collaboration directly from within Visual Studio. With Live Share, a teammate can read, navigate, edit, and debug a project that you've shared with them, and do so seamlessly and securely.

And with Visual Studio 2019, this service is installed by default.

For more information, see the Visual Studio Live Share for real-time code reviews and interactive education blog post and the Live Share now included with Visual Studio 2019 blog post.

Integrated code reviews

We're introducing a new extension that you can download to use with Visual Studio 2019. With this new extension, you can review, run, and even debug pull requests from your team without leaving Visual Studio. We support code in both GitHub and Azure DevOps repositories.

Performance gains

We've taken the once-exclusive C++ data breakpoints and adapted them for .NET Core applications.

So whether you're coding in C++ or .NET Core, data breakpoints can be a good alternative to just placing regular breakpoints. Data breakpoints are also great for scenarios such as finding where a global object is being modified or being added or removed from a list.

And, if you're a C++ developer who develops large applications, Visual Studio 2019 has made symbols out of proc, which allows you to debug those applications without experiencing memory-related issues.

Search while debugging

You've probably been there before, looking in the Watch window for a string amongst a set of values. In Visual Studio 2019, we've added search in the Watch, Locals, and Autos windows to help you find the objects and values you're looking for.

You can also format how a value is displayed within the Watch, Locals, and Autos windows. Select (by double-clicking) one of the items in any of the windows and add a comma (",") to access the drop-down list of possible format specifiers, each of which includes a description of its intended effect.

For more information, see the Enhanced in Visual Studio 2019: Search for Objects and Properties in the Watch, Autos, and Locals Windows blog post.

Snapshot Debugger

Get a snapshot of your app's execution in the cloud to see exactly what's happening. (This feature is available in Visual Studio Enterprise, only.)

We've added support for targeting ASP.NET (Core and desktop) applications that run on an Azure VM. And, we've added support for applications that run in an Azure Kubernetes Service. The Snapshot Debugger can help you dramatically reduce the time it takes to resolve issues that occur in production environments.

For more information, see the Debug live ASP.NET Azure apps using the Snapshot Debugger page, and the Introducing Time Travel Debugging for Visual Studio Enterprise 2019 blog post.

Microsoft Edge Insider support

New in 16.2: You can set a breakpoint in a JavaScript application and start a debug session by using the Microsoft Edge Insider browser. When you do so, Visual Studio opens a new browser window with debugging enabled, which you can then use to step through application JavaScript within Visual Studio.

Pinnable Properties tool

New in 16.4: Now, it's easier to identify objects by their properties while debugging with the new Pinnable Properties tool. Just hover the cursor over a property you want to display in the debugger window of the Watch, Autos, and Locals windows, select the pin icon, and immediately see the information you're looking for at the top of the window!
