Войдите в систему, чтобы написать обзорную рецензию Сортировка по: Clean, configurable and in active development.Installation was a breeze. Edit: developer actively listens and responds to feedback and requests It's really nice to have an overview of what is going on when you build a solution with alot of projects. The display is customizable (I trimmed it down to just some core details, sorted it by build order and removed grouping) and pretty responsive. I did noticed some slight delays (VS showing the 'busy dialog') in it's default configuration with a big project but with a bit of tuning I think this will please alot of people.

Free GIS Component and Map Server: Community Edition extension. VsVim extension. This extension is beyond words! Here is what I love: 1) it's mostly complete - there a few commands missing here and there but you will never find yourself cursing at VsVim. 2) it plays nice with other extensions - Jared actually seems to go out of his way to make sure VsVim doesn't break or isn't broken by other extensions. I use the Refactor from Developer Express - the two play beautifully together. 3) it can be turned off temporarily - this, strange as it may seem, is probably the most important feature there is. 4) Jared's support is second-to-none - I don't think the man sleeps or knows the meaning of the word. 5) it's free - it shouldn't be, not with the kind of effort it takes to make such a high quality, super advanced and uber useful extension, but it's free.

Only thing I hate is the feeling of VS2012 when VsVim isn't installed! Thank you Jared! Multi Language Spell Checker extension. Sign in to write a review Sort by: I needed this for a long time :)nice! Hi,is this extension supporting VS2013? I could use it on VS2010, VS 2012.. but I can't find it any where for 2013. please advise. Thanks! In VS 2012 adornments disappear by themselves in C header. A nice spell checker!! Been a favorite for a while, nice work! Awesome spell checker. Nothing to say except that it works as intended. The extension crashed my VS when choosing a different language.I checked out the code an debugged itThe problem globe.jpg was set to content and could not be found.I changed the build type to resource and in AddRemoveWindow.xaml I changed the image path to: <ImageBrush x:Key="NationsGlobe" ImageSource="/SpellChecker;component/Resources/globe.jpg" Opacity="0.2" AlignmentX="Center" AlignmentY="Bottom" TileMode="None" Stretch="Uniform" /> Now it works like a charm - thank you.

Bing Maps SDK for Windows Store apps extension. Войдите в систему, чтобы написать обзорную рецензию Сортировка по: It says it installs, but if you check the folder C:\Users\.. \AppData\Local\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0\ExtensionSDKs\ it actually is missing the necessary extensions. I had to manually unpack and copy them into the right directories. This cannot be installed using Visual Studio 2013. Very good SDK. I'm working with VS2013 and cannot install this extension to build a windows 8.0 app :( really bad release, map not refreshing after navigation Good solid map control for Windows Store apps. GhostDoc extension. Sign in to write a review Sort by: as easy as CTRL + SHIFT + D - really nice! How can you not love this tool! The best commenting tool for Visual Studio I have ever used.

I use VB and GhostDoc's most important feature to me is the integration with intellisense. I am sure there is more but this alone improves my productivity very significantly. Pretty cool add-in, but I wish it had some multi-languages possibilities ! Just a note.Earlier it was free for commercial use. Is it possible to extend the Pro version trial period? Very useful tool. Saves some time when writing xml documents in your code. The lack of support for exceptions is a huge negative. Good old Ghost Doc has been my friend for long time. The old version worked great but the new version has messed up xml tags. Entity Developer Express extension. Sign in to write a review Sort by: Great tool but it is only a demo. You cannot get more than 10 tables from the free version. I would give more starts if it clearly stated that it was a demo and not an express version with the same features as the pro version but limited to only 10 tables.

The Entity Developer Express is a REALLY nice tool but has one very serious drawback-- it only supports 10 entities per model. There are two editions of Entity Developer available on the vendor's site - Standard (which costs $99.95) and Express (which is free). Am confused why this is listed as "Free" when its $99 on the site. Git Source Control Provider extension. Sign in to write a review Sort by: Since the Built in Microsoft Git Provider is very very slow, this Git Source Control Provider remain the best solution to integrate Visual Studio with Git. yeah,the author is a chinese coder?

This plug-in is rubbish, you cannot push/pull/add/delete/compare/see history from inside VS. not what you expect from a SCCI EDIT: I just installed the latest version today and it blew away my Resharper registration in Visual Studio 2012. Nice one! Not! Very useful extension, the integration with Visual Studio 2012 is quite good but sometimes buggy. This plugin completely broke for me. Had the hanging problem after installing and opening a repo that was already tracked by "github for windows" under windows 8, needed to install the full git install from now loading vs2012 is fast and everything seems to work, comiting is fast and simple great tool! Really good extensión. Congratulations. Very low quality.

Thank you. Thanks. Code alignment extension. Sign in to write a review Sort by: SO many years of pressing space bar to align code are over! Sometimes you just need this tool for mapping properties left and right for database saves. and the equals or space align is proper job!! Thanks man! Nice Job, nice tool. Great. Really perfect! Excellent!!! Must-have! Simply amazing. Will this be available for Express? I'm so glad someone took the time to create this extension. PHP Tools for Visual Studio extension. Sign in to write a review Sort by: Free version is too limited to be useful and the price is too high for individual developers. The tool is wonderful, but it has an issue. Please modify the tool to create an relative path to the project, not the absolute one, because it's anoying when you use that project on multiple devices. Thank's Tried it for 20 days, and I would like to say your product is awesome! How can i debug my php project ? PHP Tools for Visual Studio makes it easy to develop and debug quickly in Visual Studio.

The program is very slow and can't support F12 on a simple include("header.php"). I love this tool, easy to implement and debug write php codes. I am so happy Tamas I need this to work on VS2013. You guys have made PHP debugging feel natively supported on VS, amazing work. Hi, this is an excellent tool but the free version is way too limited.You should add a couple of more features. I have latest Phalanger. I'm impressed. 11/10 guys - awesome work :) VS10x Code Map v3 extension. Great tool! Thanks for fixing both things! I really appreciate it. ------------------Original text:------------------ I just wish it wouldn't open this page on every update. EDIT 2014-01-30: I know I don't speak for everybody, but I think there are two problems that people have with the weekly updates: 1.

. #1 is something only Microsoft can address.#2, however, is something you can address. Personally I dislike it when extensions in any app put up a "new update" page (there are several Firefox/Chrome extensions that do the same thing, and it's just as annoying there). I would recommend ditching the page-launch-on-install and keeping the collapsible (as it is not as obtrusive and is easy to collapse), or at least provide options to disable those. Thanks again for making a great product! # Chris. Visual Assist X extension. I have just purchased my 4th annual license extension -- enough said. I loaded a trial years back gave it a few days and bought it , its been getting progessively better since. The new release cylce adds new extras in almost quarterly and fixes what few bugs there are monthly . The support is brilliant with guys who are real coders answering your queries, the community alive and contributing, there are comments virtually every day.

Some of the best bits adding into intellesense make life a dream. Acronyms makes it like programming in shorthand and with my typo's I need it BUT. The refactoring may be little limited compared with "others" but they are really the ones you want not a whole range of bloat you never use.VA Outline is an absolute must , navigation to methods in split seconds , Microsoft should "copy" this tool as a std in VS , but meanwhile I have it !! I suppose the accolade is if i had to turn it off i would have to relearn how to code Now Year 7 .... Web Essentials 2012 extension. Dropping support for TypeScript (without plastering that "little" detail all over the download page) has just cost me 4 wasted hours and sent me full circle back to the old Web Essentials. 1. Installed Web essential update- lost TypeScript support 2. Installed separate TypeScript add-in from MS- Does not build existing TypeScript files in project 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

I have never had so much grief from one update. Productivity Power Tools 2012 extension. Sign in to write a review Sort by: I like the tools but I created a guideline and there is no way to delete them. HELP!! Nice tool set EXCEPT the column guidelines functionality is broke... I created 3 guidelines and could not remove them. I had to go into the registry to delete the guides. Please fix this!! By Proco | January 27 2014 Very helpful Stable and useful.Most useful for me:* "Custom document well" options adds support for closing file tabs with one click, without popup menus* Code HTML copy I tried it on Visual Studio 2010 (back then) and was great. I love these tools I wish they were baked into the product. So 5/5 for the tools.1/5 for not having them in vs2013 OOB :) I'm very surprised that these essential features are still not part of Visual Studio itself.

I love this extension. Thanks! I love this extension, please please please make this available to VS 2013, I miss the tabs layout feature that put my tabs to the left of my project. Great set of extensions! I love these tools. Visual Studio Tools for Git extension. Sign in to write a review Sort by: Not a patch on using git in the command line. We've had plenty of issues around using this plugin and there are still some bugs and missing essential features. I'll outline some of them that most effect me. * No stashing* No way to fetch and track new remote branches. Has to be done in CLI to show up as a branch in VS.* Seems to ignore update-index --assume-unchanged (needed for contributor-specific files. We have also in the past had issues where it would remove entire projects from the index, sending the team into a panic.

Some of my teammates like the VS integration, which itself is alright, but it needs to be a lot better if I'm going to trust it enough to leave the command line. Much needed tool. For example: Try getting the History of a file. It would be great to have an annotation feature available! Could you support Visual Studio 2010? Thank you, very very much!
