Introduction

Visual Studio is a broad subject, but this book covers it in a concise way. In order to give you enough information to use Visual Studio effortlessly, this book covers a little bit of everything. Some features covered are limited to specific editions of Visual Studio; in those cases, the book marks the edition required with a banner at the beginning of the section. To avoid repetition, however, all features that are limited to the Express edition are specified, as are Premium and Ultimate edition features. For features available in several editions, only the lowest required edition is specified. For example, if a description is applicable to Premium and Ultimate editions, we will mark that feature as Premium.
