" summary

Visual Studio 2019 shows concrete improvements: faster startup with a revamped getting‑started screen, partial solution loading and solution filters (.slnf) to open huge repos quickly, built‑in Live Share for coediting, regex-aware coloring and intellisense inside strings, Go To All (Ctrl+T) for files and csproj, completion that auto‑adds usings, Ctrl+. refactorings (foreach↔LINQ, pull up, rename namespace), code cleanup + dotnet format, Test Explorer running discovery/execution out‑of‑process and IntelliCode (trained on 5,000 GitHub projects) plus a NuGet type index (top 1,000 packages) that lets Ctrl+. install the right package.
