Recently I approaced C# and I've tried to see some projects, but I still don't understand how exactly I can use an SDK. Is it a ready to go project? When i download it I just need to modify some items in the SDK to create any kind of project or do i need to create a new file and somehow use the SDK? How can I use it?
To install the Visual Studio SDK after completing your Visual Studio installation, rerun the Visual Studio installer and select the Visual Studio extension development workload.
Microsoft bot application template is not visible in Visual studio 2017. How to add bot application template in Visual studio. Is this possible to add template with Visual studio installer or i need to add with Add-ons.
karna, you can get a VSIX installer from here
If you are looking for BotFramework V3 Project Template it is no longer available on visual studio marketplace.
However, you can download from my github repo instead:
It comes with a custom state storage. It's Entity Framework based.

I already have a project which is ready to build. Currently, I am using visual studio 2013.
But, I don't know how to create an MSI setup in visual studio 2013, but for visual studio 2010 there are plenty of tutorials out there discussing how to create a setup in visual studio 2010.
Does this mean I need to install visual studio 2010 in order to create an application setup for my project?
What is the easiest way to create an application setup in visual studio 2013?
Microsoft has listened to the cry for supporting installers (MSI) in Visual Studio and release the Visual Studio Installer Projects Extension. You can now create installers in VS2013, download the extension here from the visualstudiogallery.
visual-studio-installer-projects-extension
As of Visual Studio 2012, Microsoft no longer provides the built-in deployment package. If you wish to use this package, you will need to use VS2010.
In 2013 you have several options:
InstallShield
WiX
Roll your own
In my projects I create my own installers from scratch, which, since I do not use Windows Installer, have the advantage of being super fast, even on old machines.
Visual Studio 2013 now supports setup projects. Microsoft have shipped a Visual Studio extension to produce setup projects.
Visual Studio Installer Projects Extension
Microsoft recommends to use the "InstallShield Limited Edition for Visual Studio" as replacement for the discontinued "Deployment and Setup Project" - but it is not so nice and nobody else recommends to use it. But for simple setups, and if it is not a problem to relay on commercial third party products, you can use it.
The alternative is to use Windows Installer XML (WiX), but you have to do many things manually that did the Setup-Project by itself.
Microsoft also release the Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Installer Projects Extension This is the same extension as the 2013 version but for Visual Studio 2015
Apart from Install Shield and WiX, there is Inno Setup. Although I haven't tried it myself I have heard good things about it.
I will tell , how i solved almost similar problem. I developed a application using VS 2013 and tried to create wizard for it failed to do. Later i installed premium VS and tried and failed.
at last i used "ClickOnce" and it worked fine.
So i believe here also , "CLICKONCE" would help you.
I am trying to create a new SharePoint project in my virtual machine. it has SharePoint 2013 installed.
I am using visual studio 2010 ultimate version.
Every time i try to create a new empty SharePoint, web part or any SharePoint project it says.
A SharePoint server is not installed on this computer. A share Point server must me installed to work with SharePoint projects
but i have SharePoint 2013 installed.
can we use VS 2010 to create SharePoint projects in a VM with SP2013 installed.
I just installed the office developer tools for VS 2010 as well. But still i get the same results.
Any ideas.
This link describes the problem and how to fix it
So, have you installed Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2012? The default SharePoint project templates come with VS2012 is for SharePoint 2010 and will not work in SharePoint 2013 Server.
Also you need to make sure the site against which you are developing farm solution doesn't use developer template (rather user team site template).
I got an issue with Visual Studio, Silverlight 5 Beta SDK and XNA.
I did a fresh install of all Visual Studio components I need to create the application I have in mind:
Visual C# 2010 Express
XNA Game Studio 4.0
Visual Web Developer 2010 Express
Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone
Visual Studio 2010 SP1
Silverlight 5 Beta Tools
However, when I start VS 2010 Express for Windows Phone and go to create a new project these are the templates I have:
Missing Templates
But there are a few templates missing.
How can I make appear the following templates:
Full list of templates
So what am I missing in this? I believe I installed everything and still nothing appears.
Is it because I'm using the express edition of visual studio? it doesn't make much sense though.
You installed that SDK correctly (uninstalled a previous installed SDK version correctly too)?
You could try and reset your vs2010 settings. This sometimes helps to restore missing project templates. You can do so like this:
Go to Tools / Import Export Settings
Choose to "Reset all Settings"
Restart Visual Studio
No guarantees but that helped me once before, so it is probably worth a try.
Just for others to know, you must have Visual Studio 2010 service pack 1(download link) before that.
