Fun links 2015-06-26

This week I’m doing something a bit different, this week my links are all to videos outlining some new features and functionality surrounding Visual Studio 2015 and C# 6.

Most of the people reading this use Visual Studio on a day to day basis, so it felt like a good subject for some fun links that are hopefully also educational.

And as a bonus link (which is not a video) I’ll send you to look at Visual Studio Code, which is a new light(er) weight code editor designed for web based applications. It has many of the things you may like from Visual Studio without all of the extra features which you may not need. Plus it works on Linux and Mac as well as Windows. https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/code-vs.aspx
