Introduction to The Integrated Development Environment
• Sometimes the IDE is referred to as Visual Studio – but it is only one part of VS
• The IDE is the interface between the programmer and the .NET tools he or she uses
• Includes design components for Console, Web, and Windows development (to name a few)
• Includes an editor for all .NET languages as well as XML and HTML
