All language subtitles for 2. Visual Studio Windows - Getting Started

All right, so I guess now the download of Visual Studio, the download and install, is finished.

Basically it took some time and I think that in the end of the process where we stopped in our previous

video, you had like to reboot your computer in order to complete the installation process.

So now once the installation process is done, let us start and open up Visual Studio and see how it

looks like.

Talk a little bit about some of its features, how to create a new project, how to start working with

it and so on.

So this video is going to be kind of fun.

And I hope you're excited as much as I am, because that will be our first project using Visual Studio.

So let us start.

So let's go and type down Visual Studio 20 nineteen, so there you go, there is the installer and there

is also the Visual Studio twenty nineteen.

So let's open it up and see how basically it will start working on Visual Studio twenty nineteen.

There may be de de de de de de.

Come on.

OK, so one thing, the first thing once it opens up is basically these kind of window, that gives

you a couple of options to connect to a codebase clone repository.

OK, these things maybe will not be discussed in this video, open local folder, open existing project

or solution or create a new project.

Which is exactly what we are going to do in this video to see how we create how can we create a new

project.

So click on it, create new project.

And here you will probably if you followed all the instructions in the download and install steps,

Prolene, our previous video, then you will see a couple of options here, OK?

You will see like empty project that gives you the option to start from scratch with C++ for windows.

OK, this may also be a good option.

A console app, which is a console application, including the Hello World by Default program.

There is this Semak Project Windows desktop.

Okay.

And additional things that will probably not be discussed right now because there is no reason to dive

into it dynamically.

Library and static library.

These are good things, but not for now.

For now we will just see how we can create a new project.

So two options.

Two main options, in my opinion, for this is the empty project and the console application project.

So I will go with this one selected press on next.

And now you see that you are going to create a console application and it's going to be to have these

project name.

So let's give it a project name.

So what should be the project name?

Let's start with my first project.

OK, does this name is OK with you?

And here you will specify the location where these basically project is going to reside.

You can go with the default or simply you can change it to another location on your computer.

And also here you have like the solution name.

So we have the project name and the solution name and simply saying, if you will put your mouth on

this icon, you will see that a solution is basically a container for one or more projects in visual

studio.

So you can simply call it, I don't know, my first let's call it solution.

OK, we'll talk a little bit more in depth about it once we create the project.

So, yeah.

So let's go like this.

So create and now we will see how our first magic in Visual Studio is going to happen.

So there it is.

Come here.

Awesome.

So that's our first project that we created in our in our visual studio.

Are you excited, guys?

It's simply amazing.

So just before we move on, OK, I would like to talk about a couple of things I'm not going to to to

talk about.

These are source file, OK, which may be C or C++, where we'll see how we can create for either of

these languages.

Don't worry about it.

But what I want you to to talk with you about is a little bit about the visual studio itself.

So basically all of that is the visual studio and it's simply an idea, OK, packed with a lot of features

like code browsing, colorization, you can see a lot of nice colors here.

And you will come to to an understanding while you will develop that some of these colors make sense.

OK, there is some rules for using these colors.

OK, you will see that you have like a completion of symbols while you develop.

You have a built in compiler and basically torro built system that you can use and you have like a debugger

and testing code, analyzes tools and so on.

So there is a lot of things that these visual studio idea provides us, and that's mainly why it's it

is so heavy.

It like it's it's not like code blocks, OK, that you install, download it and install living within

like seconds.

There are visual studio ways like about seven or eight gigabytes, but that makes sense.

So.

Of course, there are additional things that we can talk about this visual studio, but for now, these

guys, we will talk about the basics that will help you to get started.

All right, so now let's take a look at these nice menu here on the right, and if you will come to

see here, you will see like solution, my first solution.

And under the solution, you will see my first project.

OK, so let's first of all, take a look at what's inside of the file explorer.

OK, so right.

Click on the solution and go to open folder in file explorer in here.

Basically, you will see the the actual place where the project and the solution and all of them reside,

OK, in actual directorate.

And you can see here a lot of files, OK, aside to just the source files that you expect to see.

OK, so you see some file called Dot SLN You see also via a directory, my first project, which simply

contains.

A lot of information regarding the projects themselves and simply the code appears as a solution in

visual studio, and that's something that we like to you to have to to take, at least for the beginning,

is granted.

OK, and the solution, as we said, contains of a collection of projects.

And there is the Dr. Salan file, which is simply used.

These file is used for configuring the solution.

There are also additional, like you've seen here, VXI X Proj Files.

OK, they are used simply to configure each project in a given solution.

And basically saying, OK, you have like these source file right here, but basically saying these

all of these files that I just talked about, the VCR, sex, proj in the data Salom, all files are

simply used for organization purposes and to help and to organize and define different include paths,

compiler settings, and simply saying how different elements and projects should be connected all together.

OK, so that's just one thing that I wanted like you to be familiar with.

And there is also an additional option to do are to do away with this data.

Salan and DOT proj files and simply to configure your own environment independently.

And also there are options for the C make users OK if you're a C make user.

But that's definitely all right, not for this video.

So that's just the first introduction to how we can see all of this solution.

Don't worry.

We will also talk about the source files right away.

But just I want you to go with you guys through a couple of steps together.

You have like these are another great thing about Visual Studio is that it simply is integrated with

the visual C++ compiler and gives you a simple way to get started to build into debug your programs

so you can see like build, you can build solution, you can rebuild solution, clean and so on very

easily debug.

OK, that's also another great tool that you can use.

And what else, what else, what else do I want to tell you about it now for, for the beginning.

I think this will be enough.

OK, and last thing that we need to cover up is this file is this directorate called source files.

OK, so you can see that it has created things through our project definitions that we said let's make

this project to be is a console application project.

So the default configuration there creates some default file regarding a Hello World Program.

OK, and you can see that the default here is my first project, DOT CPB, which is a file written in

C++ language, and it's the default and ready to be executed.

But that's absolutely not the file that we need for our course since we talk about see, OK, we don't

care here, at least not for now about CBB.

So what I suggest to you is, first of all, right, click on it and press here.

Remove OK, so remove these file basically to remove, to remove it from my first project or choose

delete to permanently delete it.

So I will just delete because I don't think we need these files anymore.

So how to create a new file for our AC project.

Right.

Click on the Source Files Directory.

And here you have like add and press add new item.

OK, press add new item.

We are going to create our first file in C, so add new item in here.

You can see a lot of options, OK, CPB file header files, lip class and so on.

So.

Be very focused right now.

It's very important what you have to choose here is very simple press on the CPB file.

OK, and here in the in the section name where you have to specify the file.

Name the file name itself.

Simply say, like, let's say the fire will be Hello, world.

OK, let's modify the source through Hello World.

But instead of this extension of the CPB extension.

What we are going to use is simply remove this cap and just be left with s..

So hello, world dot C. And now press add and this will create a new file in our project and you see

file ready to be worked by us.

So if, for example, we want to make some simple programs, so let's make like include studio dot h,

OK, standard input that age and I will show you exactly in a second what is the problem.

Can't include a studio that age, standard input output and we will simply create, I don't know, some

basic program so into me and we will use like print f hello beautiful beautiful world.

OK, so that's the basic program we created.

You see, it's very, very nice.

Colors are beautiful.

Maybe you have like the white preference as a white background.

So it also may be changed easily right into preferences.

So now that we've created a program, let's try to build and run it.

And for that, simply go to the build section, OK?

And you can see like you have like build solution, build my first project, let's build my first project

and lalala build one succeeded.

Everything is awesome.

Debug start with our debugging if we want to run it.

So let's see.

There you go.

That's our nice message.

Let's just minimize it a little bit.

I think it's too big.

It's too big.

So hello.

Beautiful World is printed on our console application, which is freaking awesome guys.

Oh, and another thing I wanted to show you is the fact that if you take a look also during the build

process, the executable file has been also generated.

So now, guys, I think you are ready to proceed with the course and I think you are ready to use visual

studio for whatever needs you have.

So good luck, guys.

And until the next time, let me know what you think of this video.

What do you think about a visual studio?

And I will see you all the next videos.

Good luck, guys.
