After months of previews, the time has finally arrived for the general availability of both https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/ and https://aka.ms/dotnet6-GA, two major releases by Microsoft that have been a year (at least) in the making. First, let’s start out with the https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/visual-studio-2022-now-available/, which is the first time that Microsoft’s IDE has https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/tag/64-bit/.

In that same sense, while Visual Studio 2019 already had https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/tag/intellicode/, Microsoft’s “AI-assisted code companion”, Visual Studio 2022 gets some improvements to the tool.

Microsoft notes that.NET 6 will be https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/releases.md and, as one developer points out on Twitter, this also means it’s time to update from.NET 5 ASAP.
