There have been two preview releases so far. A 64-bit Visual Studio should improve developer productivity, as you won’t have to wait so long for operations to complete. As development hardware becomes more capable (my main development system is a Xeon-E NUC workstation with 32GB of RAM that’s still got plenty of expansion space), using all the available system resources makes a lot of sense, reducing compile times and supporting larger data sets for machine learning. It’s not a visible change but affects everything in the platform, from how it works with large data sources to how extensions work with the new architecture. One of the biggest changes to Visual Studio 2022 is the shift to a 64-bit platform. All four installations are managed with the same installation app, allowing me to pick and choose different workloads for different releases. The process works well: I am running a set of the Visual Studio 2017 build tools for Visual Studio Code, the current Visual Studio 2019 release, and preview builds of both Visual Studio 20. This way you can keep a production build to work with current language versions while still testing out preview releases. An important change a few years back was the development of a new installer that allows you to run multiple releases of Visual Studio side by side.

You don’t have to reserve a whole PC to try out the preview.

Preview versions of all three editions are available using your existing license to enable the appropriate one. The two higher editions are available as subscriptions, with professional pricing at $45 per user per month and enterprise at $250 per user per month. There are three versions of Visual Studio: a free community edition for personal, educational, and open-source projects a professional edition for small teams and an enterprise edition for large development teams and large projects, with cross-platform support. The next version, Visual Studio 2022, is possibly the biggest release for some time, with a public preview now available.

Initially only a software bundle with a common look and feel, it’s evolved over the years into a single development environment that supports most development tasks. Visual Studio has been at the heart of Microsoft’s developer platform for more than 20 years.
