Yes, that means that Preview 9 is the last preview, and .NET Core 3.0 will be released in its final version later this month. We have a lot of great speakers and content prepared for .NET Conf this year. It&#8217;s one of the big .NET developer events each year, and you cannot beat the price. It&#8217;s free and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dotnetconf.net\/?utm_source=dotnet&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=savedate\">streaming online<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Visual Studio Support<\/h2>\n<p>.NET Core 3.0 is supported with <a href=\"https:\/\/visualstudio.microsoft.com\/vs\/preview\/\">Visual Studio 2019 16.3 Preview 3<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/visualstudio\/mac\/install-preview?view=vsmac-2019\">Visual Studio for Mac 8.3<\/a>, which were also released today.

The short answer is that we only test .NET Core 3.0 with Visual Studio 2019 16.3 and have made many improvements and key fixes that are only in 16.3. The same model applies to Visual Studio for Mac 8.3.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/OmniSharp\/omnisharp-vscode\">C# Extension<\/a> for <a href=\"https:\/\/code.visualstudio.com\/\">Visual Studio Code<\/a> is always updated to support new .NET Core versions.
