A key project, Rusty C underscore Codigin underscore UTC, connects Rust to Microsoft's native Windows compiler backend, MSVC, enabling seamless interoperability with C++ and supporting hybrid Rust slash C++ projects on Windows.
denolfeHOST
In the comments, the community mostly expressed skepticism about Rust's immediate impact, criticizing the high memory use of some Windows apps and the slow progress on support in Visual Studio.
denolfeHOST
There was debate over whether Rust truly deserves Tier 1 status or if it's mostly a strategic move by Microsoft.
denolfeHOST
Many discussed Rust's intercompatibility with C++, the long-term prospects for the language, and the challenges of transitioning large legacy codebases.
Scott HoagHOST
But the one that always gets me is, and I'm certainly colored by this, and I imagine you've got a little bit of bias here too, is things like companies who participate in the broader Microsoft ecosystem.
Scott HoagHOST
So say you go out and, like in your case, you're a partner and you get Visual Studio Enterprise licenses or the Microsoft Azure Visual Studio licenses, whatever they are now.
Scott HoagHOST
Hey, guess what? Every one of those comes with an entry tenant.
Scott HoagHOST
So if you're an organization and you've got 500 developers, guess what? You have 501 tenants out there to go and manage and go and think about.
TeejHOST
Casey, just so
ThePrimeagenHOST
you know, I currently can't type text without feeling the lag in Visual Studio.
ThePrimeagenHOST
so i i don't think we should even try to change the entire files text color
Casey MuratoriPANELIST
okay color is not on the table like characters are not on the fans kick
Randy KindigHOST
It also will have an editor slash IDE.
Randy KindigHOST
and a Visual Studio extension if you use that.
Randy KindigHOST
And sounds like it's coming along nicely.
Randy KindigHOST
It sounds very, very powerful and should be a lot of fun to play with.
Tim CoreyHOST
But this is one where, you know what, I'm going to put the production connection string in my app and run it locally just to see what's happening.
Tim CoreyHOST
But I can debug easier if I have Visual Studio open in debug mode but have the production connection string.
Tim CoreyHOST
Don't do that because then what happens is you've given access to potentially an AI to scan that.
Tim CoreyHOST
If you're using Visual Studio, you might have Copilot running and that could potentially see your connection strings.
Tim CoreyHOST
Don't do that.
Tim CoreyHOST
You might accidentally put it into source control and that's a big issue.
Paul ThurrottHOST
... do as an individual developer, or you might do as a business that has maybe a, a bunch of developers where you want them to have certain tools and whatever configurations, and then allow you to apply that thing later.
Paul ThurrottHOST
But what they're doing instead is just pre-configuring it- And they're installing things like Visual Studio Code, GitHub Copilot, PowerToys, PowerToys, uh, WinApp, CLI, Windows Dev Skills, blah, blah, blah, whatever.
Paul ThurrottHOST
And okay, but [laughs] not everybody needs those exact things, and I don't understa- this is, this is doomed to be...
Paul ThurrottHOST
This is pointless, is what it is.
Paul ThurrottHOST
So that's a super basic version of what I was saying, although it doesn't, um, handle the, you know, Windows, you know, uh...
Paul ThurrottHOST
We're showing, uh, file name extensions in File Explorer or whatever those things are, right? That's not part of that.
Paul ThurrottHOST
But, um, I, to me, that is, uh, even though that's still kinda half-assed in the sense that what you're not getting through WinGet, which should be in WinGet and I feel like has to be in WinGet eventually, is the ability to capture the, um, configuration of an individual app, save it somewhere, and then have you apply that, uh, along with the app, right? So it's one thing to get, like, Visual Studio installed, but I also want the particular workloads that Windows, uh, Visual Studio supports.
Paul ThurrottHOST
Could you just do that for me? See, that would save time, [laughs] right? If you just did that.
Richard CampbellHOST
Okay.
Richard CampbellHOST
September, Visual Studio 2019 with Framework 4.8, but also .NET Core 3.0, which is really the point where you kind of hit parity.
Richard CampbellHOST
Yeah.
Richard CampbellHOST
So the features in the old framework that we wanted in the open source crowd platform version, they were all there now and more or less complete.
Carl FranklinHOST
No.
Richard CampbellHOST
Okay, September, uh, Visual Studio 2019 with Framework 4.8-
Carl FranklinHOST
Mm-hmm
Richard CampbellHOST
...
Carl FranklinHOST
Okay,
Richard CampbellHOST

Richard CampbellHOST
So the features in the old framework that we wanted in the open source crowd platform version, they were all there now and more or less complete.
Richard CampbellHOST
That's where I started using it.
Christian HeilmannHOST
Probably not because the developers are paying for it, but because the CEOs are paying for it for their developers.
Krzysztof CieślakGUEST
Also, it has been a cycle, right? I'm slightly younger than you, but I do remember times when Visual Studio was a very expensive bit of software.
Krzysztof CieślakGUEST
And I do also remember times in the 90s when you were paying for compilers.
Krzysztof CieślakGUEST
So the fact that in the 2000s and 2010s, we went into this like everything is free and everything is open source, that has been a rather unique moment in the history of software development.
