What Visual Studio workloads are needed for building VS extensions?

Time:09-27

We've already added the Visual Studio workload Visual Studio Extensions Development, but that doesn't seem to be enough. So, are there other workloads that should be installed on a developer's machine, to author VS extensions?

Addendum

I should mention that the users struggling to add Visual Studio Extension Development are using Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition. I would think this would work, but I could be wrong. Can you do Visual Studio development with the Community Edition?

CodePudding user response:

Visual Studio extension development .NET desktop development workloads should be enough for most VS extensions.

Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition is perfectly fine to do Visual Studio development.
