Is it possible to setup flutter on Visual Studio 2017 IDE? - visual-studio

Is it possible to install flutter on VS 2017 IDE? (not Visual Studio Code) I can't seem to find any answer to this, and I really prefer working in VS 2017.
Any help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, it is not supported yet. You can use VisualStudio as an editor and you'll be able to run the flutter commands in the console to run the app. But you'll lose the debugging and intellisense.

Is it possible to setup in Visual Studio or other IDEs?

Is it possible to install flutter on VS 2019 IDE (not Visual Studio Code or Android Studio/IntelliJ)?
I can't find anything for VS 2019, but only for VS Code.
From the Flutter FAQ:
Does Flutter work with any editors or IDEs?
We support plugins for Android Studio, IntelliJ IDEA, and VS Code.
See editor configuration for setup details, and Android Studio/IntelliJ and VS Code for tips on how to use the plugins.
Alternatively, you can use a combination of the flutter command in a terminal and one of the many editors that support editing Dart.
So, no
You cannot get the same tooling in Visual Studio that you can get in Android Studio/IntelliJ and VS Code because the Flutter team does not work on support for any other IDEs.
If you visit IDEs and editors for Dart, you can see what code editors have support for editing Dart code and you can use that in conjunction with the flutter command to get a similar experience.

Unity Could not find any supported Visual Studio installations

Problem picture
Environment:
Windows10 Professional Visual Studio 2017 Unity 2017.4.12f1
I changed the default installation path of Visual Studio 2017 and installed it successfully.
The install path as follows:
D:\win10\Program\visual_studio\2017
However, in the Build setting of Unity, it still can't find my Visual Studio 2017.
How can I solve the problem? Thanks~
Go to Edit > Preferences, and select your Visual Studio to be the preferred external editor. Use Browse if Visual Studio is not listed. More info here.
You need to install windows 10 SDK

Here's a third answer. I just bumped in to this, and checked that yes VS was the preferred editor, so I went to open up VS to try uninstalling and reinstalling the GameDevWithUnity workflow, but VS popped up a dialog saying I needed to reboot my computer before installation could complete. So it seems like VS was stuck in the middle of an upgrade, which makes it reasonable that Unity couldn't find an appropriate version. I rebooted and everyone is happy.

Typescript in Visual Studio 2015

I am working on an Angular 4.X project and using Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 as IDE. So far I am able to debug my Typescript code in the browser (mostly Google Chrome) but I want to know if there is a way out using which I can put breakpoints and debug the Typescript right from the Visual Studio itself.
Any help will be appreciated.
This feature is supported only in Visual Studio 2017 you can see how to enable ithere

Visual Studio 2017 Python Feature Addition Issue

I want to install python for Visual Studio 2017 and to do that i launched the visual studio installer using this link
After it opens it goes to this window
After clicking update it comes back to same update window not sure how to solve this problem i even tried with launching direct VS2017 setup that didn't help either...please let me know if anyone has seen this issue and next steps.
To install all the tool required for developping with Python using Visual Studio 2017, you need to to launch your Visual Studio Installer corresponding to your edition of Visual Studio.
Then you can add the workload in order to install everything required to code with python.

Install Xamarin on Visual Studio 2015 with Xamarin on Visual Studio 2013 already installed

I have Xamarin installed on the Visual Studio 2013 on Windows Operating System. It works fine.
There is Xamarin tools in VS2013 as follows:
My problem is as follows:
I have recently installed Visual Studio 2015 on my desktop on Windows operating system. I thought when I opened the VS2015, I expected to see the Xamarin in it, but it does not. Then I installed the Xamarin again, and again and again, but still Xamarin does not show up in VS2015.
I wonder what is wrong? What am I missing?
By the way, I still have VS2013 on my desktop.
No Xamarin tools in VS 2015 as follows:
I even tried the following approach, still no luck.
Control Panel -> Programs -> Programs and Features Choose Xamarin
Click Change -> Next -> Click the desired drop down for each items in the tree view and select "Will be installed on local hard drive."
Click Next
I am even getting the following screen when installation is completed, but still I could not able to see Xamarin in VS2015.
I have installed Xamarin in my Visual Studio 2015 two days ago and it showing Xamarin under Tools. Below I have described the approach which I have followed to install Xamarin in Visual Studio 2015.
Go to Contol Panel >> Program Features >> Visual Studio
2015 >> Change>> Modify
1. Select C#/.Net(Xamarin) under Cross Platform Mobile Development
2. Check if these three red marked items are checked or not.
3. And then press update.It will download all the required packages to run Xamarin on VS 2015.Hope it helps you!!
I recently had horrendous problems trying to install Xamarin on VS2015 + Win10. (I don't have any other VS versions installed.) Even a full install and reinstall left huge holes in the installation. I tried repeatedly and each time the whole dev environment seemed to get itself in a different unusable state.
The fix for me, which is probably hitting a nut with a sledgehammer, was to:
Uninstall Xamarin (via Control Panel|Uninstall).
Uninstall Visual Studio (via Control Panel|Uninstall).
Follow Xamarin's manual uninstallation procedures Full Xamarin Uninstall.
Perform full reinstall of Visual Studio, being sure to tick the boxes shown in the answer by Parth Patel above.
This resulted in a faultless, fully functioning Xamarin environment for me. Overkill, maybe, but worth a go if all else fails.
Here is the solution:
I have deleted all the existing versions of visual studio ( 2010, 2012, 2013) except Visual Studio 2015 and then installed the Xamarin, and then I could able to see Xamarin on Visual Studio 2015.
It is not required to delete previous versions of VS. I have Xamarin Studio, VS 2013 and now VS 2015 and working perfectly. I moved to VS 2015 due to recent purchase of Xamarin by MS and that VS 2015 has Xamarin included.
I believe the issue with this question is was that your VS 2015 install did not include the add ins as pointed out in another answer in this question.
After the VS 2015 install -the only caveat was projects created initially in Xaramin Studio and then Opened in VS 2015 to needed to have the build configuration in the project tweaked. If not you could not get the project to build and then be deployed to an emulator or device for debug testing.
We have a few troubleshooting steps on our Knowledge Base that you can find here:
https://kb.xamarin.com/customer/en/portal/articles/1643349-missing-visual-studio-extensions-after-installation
Note: Some of these steps have older versions listed in the respective paths. You should use the latest version number available.
Before any install or uninstall actions. Try open some sample Xamarin project, in most cases during opening project in VS 15, it will show you, what needs to be installed or what is missing / corrupted.
Xamarin samples
I had some problems with my emulator best way to fix the problems is to uninstall everything (emulators, android sdk, vs, xamarin) and reinstall it.
It is also important to delete other or older versions of visual studio. Then you should probably see you options.
First try to uninstall all the other versions of Visual Studio (VS) 2013 in this case. Then try to reinstall Xamarin.
Visual Studio 2015 is little bit different from 2013 version, I am also using xamarin on visual studio 2015. But that is not listed under tools menu like 2013.
Maybe developers had changed that, you can go to "start a new project"(just like you start new app development), there you can find xamarin/android projects list, there you can start new android projects.
This is strange, I did not have any problem with Xamarin & VS 2015 (community).
You said,
I will see the Xamarin in it
Did you try to create a project or/and add your account in the new VS Installation ?
