Visual Studio 15 - 1 minute install

19th June 2016Tech newsBy Steve Irons

As a developer one of the things that makes life frustrating is waiting for things to download or install!

So when at the Microsoft Build event earlier this year Microsoft demonstrated a 1 minute install of Visual Studio, something that used to take upwards of 45 minutes we all let out a collective geek cheer.

Although heavily caveated that the options you choose can slow this down considerably it’s still a massive step in the right direction.

So with less time spent installing the tool that we all use to create our solutions we can spend more time actively coding!

I started programming on a Commodore Vic 20 aged 6. Since then I have grown to love every aspect of computing and technology, the creative and business applications are limitless and never cease to amaze me. I have been working with technology both software and hardware for over 20 years now and in that time I have been fortunate to have been involved in some ground breaking projects for some very high profile clients. Since starting Code String in 2012 I have been working hard to bring all that experience together with the talents of our ever growing team to produce great solutions for clients and great support to those people behind the scenes who deliver them.
