Hello and welcome to this video.
In this video, I'll be guiding you through how to install Microsoft Visual Studio.
We are going to visit the link displayed on the screen to download Visual Studio.
This is the Visual Studio homepage.
So on the the download option, we've got three different editions we can download.
I'm going to be downloading the Community Edition, which is completely free, so I'm going to click
on what that would do.
It would download the Visual Studio Community Version Installer so you can see here, says viOUS on
the school community.
So this is installer that we were on to download and install Visual Studio.
If you are new to using for your studio, you might want to take a look at these tips and resources
to get started.
So here basically have different options here, depending on the project you trying to develop or create
you.
If you want to receive tips about the specific type of project, you could click on the radio button
that relates to your particular project.
You need to submit your email address and then you get information relating to Tip.
If you want to do so, you can click on that.
If not, you can just completely exit this form by clicking on the X, and they will exit.
So you can see here my Visual Studio Community Installer has been downloaded, so I'm just going to
double click to run the installer, so I double click.
You should see this box that says the studio installer before you get started.
We need to set up a few things, so just click Continue.
What's happening now is that Visual Studio will start downloading the initial files.
The download speed will vary depending on your internet connection.
By default, Visual Studio will install the Visual Studio Core editing, which is editable here.
And then here you can add individual component of the workload that you want to use.
So at the moment, it tells you the total space required is just six one six megabyte.
That is, if I'm only installing the Visual Studio Core editor.
However, if I'm going to add workloads, the total space required will also increase.
So you can add workload based on the type of projects you want to create.
So here I'm interested in web development.
So I'm going to click on this checkbox here to download the work load that relates to the project I'm
trying to work on.
As you add a workload he can tell you here I've added this workload, and the total space required for
the installation has also increased to seven point zero six gigabyte.
Based on the workload, I've added.
So the more workload you add, the more request space you need for installation.
Note that you can also select optional components of the workload.
You can notice that this workload I've added ESB, Dot, Net and web development.
I've got all these components.
Also add it so I can also optionally remove the ones I do not need for the installation.
I also want to be able to do some desktop development and windows, so I'm going to choose another workload.
I'm going to choose this workload, which is dot net desktop development.
I'm going to click on that and that will add that workload to my installation.
There are all of that workloads, depending on the project you want to create.
You can always run the installer again once you have installed Visual Studio and always come back to
this workload area and add whatever workload or the components you want from a particular workload.
So you can see now I've added to workloads about it airspeed net, and I've also added the net desktop
development.
So you can see now he's still telling me the total space required is this.
So I need to have this space to accommodate all the components added to be installed with Visual Studio.
So I'm happy with the workflows I've added at the moment, so I'm going to click on this install button
to begin the installation.
You may get a pop up box that's saying thank you for installing Visual Studio and say why we just do
this.
Installing will like to ask you a few questions so you can take the survey or just click.
Not now.
The time it takes to install the Visual Studio Community Edition will depend on your internet speed
and the resources on your computer.
If you have other versions of Visual Studio installed, it will also show up inside the Visual Studio
installer, as you can see here.
He's also displaying Visual Studio Community 2017 because I also had that installed.
So if I want to make modifications to that, I will.
I need to do is run the installer.
And then there is an update button here that I can activate to update the community 2017 additions.
For now, I am focusing on the Visual Studio Community 2019.
You can see the installation is progressing.
There is a checkbox here that says Start after installation.
If you don't want that to happen, you can just uncheck that box.
Once the installation of Visual Studio is complete, you will get a message to reboot or restart your
computer.
So once you get that message, just restart your computer.
It is important that you do restart your computer when you get the prompt to do so.
You need to do that before you can actually start.
Visual Studio.
