What’s New in the Visual Studio 11 IDE?

A key goal with the Visual Studio 11 release was to improve the developer experience by focusing on the tasks that developers do the most frequently. In our research, we found that many users weren’t discovering features that could make them most productive. To solve this, we streamlined our UI and enhanced high usage tool windows such as the Solution Explorer so that its easier than ever to discover and use the features that make you most productive. Users also want to use search as a primary means of navigating their IDE and Solutions and so we’ve integrated search and made it more prominent in many places in the product.
