My brother has been interested in learning Javascript and because Visual Studio has been a good program for me in C# I was wondering if it is possible to get Javascript onto Visual Studio. I have tried searching it up, but none of the results worked, is there a way? And if not, what are some good alternatives.
Yes you can do so by integrating javascript extension. There are project templates for js libraries (angular or react) in vs2019 for web applications when you start a new project.

But in all honesty, I think it is better to do js development in a ide like vs code, sublime or notepad++

What I want to do, and I don't even know if this is feasible/possible, is launch our old asp.net web solution in VSCode, simple for the purpose of debugging JS.
For years, I've used Visual Studio to develop and debug our web solution (.net asp webforms). However, I'm primarily a front-end developer (JavaScript) in particular. Recently I started using VSCode for personal projects and small web apps, and I really enjoy it.
99.9% of the time, I am writing JS/TS/CSS/HTML.
I don't even know if this is feasible. Any advice or suggestions would be great. Thank you.
I was asked to create a configuration web interface for a set of configurable C# code snippets. This interface will be used massively by our company's developers.
Our company codding standard is ASP.NET / C# and all developers' IDE is Visual Studio. I figured out the best way to keep their developing experience unchanged is to actually open the snippets in Visual Studio, however I am afraid this is not even technically possible.
I also thought of using some highlighting libraries, however it will solve only the coloring problem, but not the rest of what the usual C# IDE offers.
Any suggestions?
I have two questions
I just started my learning on nodejs and looking for nodejs editor for debugging and development on eclipse. Is there anything that is available.
I have been working a while on javascript in eclipse, but debugging is poor compared to browser developer console. Its not showing errors at all and jumping from HTML code to JS flow is not happing. Looking for a solution to solve this.
PS: I used to use Aptana Studio and sublime but require something that works with eclipse. Thanks
There is IntelliJ WebStorm which has a lot JS features.. for frontend and also for backend.. Gives you some cool features for debugging like xcode for PHP for nodejs and so on.. It's not free, but it also makes a lot fun, because it's much faster then eclipse (have worked with it a lot.. and the switched) and made for web developers
Microsoft's "Visual Studio Code" is a great, free IDE for Node.js.
Check it:

My main experience with developing in Visual Studio is as c#/c++ developer. But now I need to create html+css+javascript front end for [probably] PHP code, and I've heard that Visual Studio has pretty nice capabilities in that range, including debugging javascript.
However, I can't find anywhere a "web" project (except for the ASP.Net stuff, which I'm not sure that it is the right thing).
Here's what I think I need to do:
Create html file
Create css file
Include a bunch of javascript libraries
Write my own javascript code
Press F5 and debug the code in different browsers.
I'm mainly interested in intellisense, not a visual editor.
Is Visual Studio the right IDE for this kind of web development? And if it is, how do I set up the kind of project I described above?
I think the instructions at How do you add a folder to a project in Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web? might work for setting up a Visual Studio project:
1) New blank solution
2) Right click on the solution and select Add existing website
3) Browse and select the folder with your html, css, javascript, etc. files
4) Right click on the page you want it to start on and select set as start page
As for running against different websites, you might try a Visual Studio extension. A decent starting list is here: http://www.asp.net/mobile/device-simulators
As the title mentions I would like to develop a html/css/js app for Windows8 but I'm not a fan of Visual Studio either the express or standard version when it comes to developing html.
Thus my question is with all the languages being open source is there a bundle or tutorial out there for other IDE's for example Aptana Studio so that you don't need to develop in VS?
Or if there isn't are there any hints from Microsoft of such a thing being released in the future?
You can use any editor you like to write apps. I personally use VIM for most of the code I write.
However in order to build the apps for Win8 you will have to use the compiler etc. tools that comes with .Net platform. You can use that tools from the console and thus you will avoid interaction with Visual Studio
