Visual Studio is an IDE that we will use for writing both our backend and frontend code. With more than 20 years of existence, it is one of the most advanced development environments today.
There are plenty of IDEs, and it is up to you to try a few of them and keep the one you feel most comfortable with. For me, Visual Studio is the best choice when writing .NET code, so I chose to work with it throughout this book. Nevertheless, if you prefer a different IDE, keep using it.
