Visual Studio Toolbox is a show that helps you become a more productive developer in VS by highlighting tooling within the IDE and the wider Visual Studio family.\u00a0 Most of our guests are Visual Studio team members, giving you expert knowledge on features while also providing an inside look at how the features were developed.\u00a0 The show airs a mix of both prerecorded and live episodes, with the latter letting you ask your VS-related questions directly to the people who make Visual Studio what it is today!<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>What\u2019s new on Visual Studio Toolbox?<\/h3>\n<p>In August, Visual Studio Toolbox aired two live episodes spotlighting the newest features in Visual Studio.<\/p>\n<p>The first episode streamed this month was \u201cWhat\u2019s New in Visual Studio 17.7?\u201d.\u00a0 This episode is part of a \u201cWhat\u2019s New\u201d miniseries on the Toolbox show which showcases some of the most prominent features in the latest VS update.\u00a0 In this most recent episode, we explored a wide range of 17.7 features including copy\/trim support, performance improvements, Parallel Stacks window debugging updates, new git integrations, and more!<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eiAa5Jn1-ok\" width=\"560\" height=\"314\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>We also released an episode focused on the latest Unreal game engine C++ integrations in Visual Studio 17.6 and 17.7.\u00a0 C++ Senior PM David Li presented new enhancements such as perf improvements for solution loading and closing, a window for finding all Unreal blueprint references, .editorconfig additions for Unreal naming conventions, among others.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GGz5BGPUgZw\"
