Visual Studio Online – Microsoft's Online Code Editor

Visual Studio Online is a web-based code editor, created by Microsoft, to give you a quicker way to edit and review your Visual Studio projects. A new addition to the Visual Studio family, the emphasis of this development hub is to be an online companion to the desktop version, Visual Studio Code. When you need to make a quick edit or need to join a teammate's live share session, but you don't have your tools, this software can help you. It lets you perform tasks in your browser, so you can work effectively from any device. Visual Studio Online is based on Visual Studio Code, so it supports all the extensions that the latter supports. However, while it provides convenience, this program is not meant to be a developer's default environment but a way for you to access your Visual Studio projects remotely. 

  • Pros

    • Lets You Access Your Visual Studio Projects Remotely
    • Allows You to Join Live Share Sessions from Any Device
    • Supports All Extensions Supported by Visual Studio Code
  • Cons

    • Not Designed to be a Developer's Default Environment

Softonic

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
