I have downloaded the Visual Studio Community 2017 version for mac. I opened up the installer and I guess automatically all the components are automatically set for installation or you can choose which ones you wish to install. I chose to go ahead and install everything. With Visual Studio 2017 15.9 and Visual Studio for Mac 7.7, we are moving from Oracle's JDK to a lightweight distribution of Open JDK meant for mobile development. Open JDK will be offered as a component to install along with other Visual Studio for Mac updates and you will be prompted to update your JDK settings to use Open JDK once installed. Visual Studio 2017 is the most awaited software from Microsoft. The first version of Visual Studio IDE was released on March 19, 1997, which was Visual Studio 97. At that point of time, C# didn't exist and Visual Basic, Visual C etc. Languages were part of this great tool. We can download Visual Studio 2017 from the Visual Studio official site. The different editions of Visual Studio 2017 are: Visual Studio Community 2017, Visual Studio Professional 2017 and Visual Studio Enterprise 2017. If you are looking for latest version of Visual Studio 2017 to download, you can grab the links to install from here.
