Onsen UI for Visual Studio 2017 - visual-studio-2017

My question is about how can I use Onsen UI in visual studio 2017? I need to use this framework to build an app with Apache Cordova.

There's no template for Visual Studio 2017.
The next best option is to make a blank Apache Cordova App and add the Onsen UI template manually.
As said on another forum, I haven't personally tried out this method.

Xamarin.Forms Cross-Platform templates missing on Visual Studio 2015 Professional

I have fresh install of Visual Studio 2015 Professional and after click on File - New Project - Templates - Visual C# - Cross Platform I don't get any usual templates like Blank app or Cross Platform App (Xamarin.Forms or Native). I had installed all available items during Visual Studio installation and would like to target iPhone, Android and WF platform in a same project.
How to install missing templates?
All features including Xamarin were selected during initial install of Visual Studio.
I solved the issue by performing a thorough Xamarin uninstall, then I installed it again through Visual Studio installer. Details and the exact 12 steps which helped me are described here:
https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/cross-platform/windows/visual-studio/troubleshooting/uninstall-xamarinvs/
After this I got all templates needed (iPhone, Android & Windows Phone). However, after recent update of Xamarin tools I noticed that Windows Phone project isn't added to the solution any more but replaced with Universal Windows Platform.

Reporting Template (RDLC) not exists in Visual Studio 2017

Reporting template Component (RDLC) not exists to as New Item in Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise.
How to resolve this?
I have tried by installing SQL Server Data Tools.
Previously it works for me in Visual Studio 2015.
There is a bug in the extension Microsoft Rdlc Report Designer for Visual Studio that the ReportViewer shows up as a non-visual component.
Instead use the NuGet Package Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportViewerControl.WinForms for each project that will use the ReportViewer. Part of the solution involves removing the ReportViewer from the toolbox after use and restarting Visual Studio before opening the next project/solution.
Please see this answer to a similar question for step by step details.
The RDLC editor for VS2017 is only available as a VSIX installer from the marketplace: Download
I have just used VS2015 to add the new item. All other stuff seems to be fine in VS2017 (bearing in mind that you installed the VSIX extension)

How to create an "ATL Project" in Visual Studio Community 2015?

This 2004 tutorial tells me to choose Visual C++ Project / ATL Project in the Visual Studio new project wizard.
PROBLEM: The ATL project type does not seem to exist in my Visual Studio Community 2015.
QUESTION: How to make this option appear? If impossible, what is the nearest option? Tho goal is to write a shell extension in C++.
ATL project support was not installed. To fix this:
Click on the Install Visual C++ 2015 Tools seen in the screenshot above.
Let the download and installation happen
Open the New Project dialog again: The New ATL Project option should appear.
It is doable with the Community version.

How do I install the NUnit plugin in Visual Studio 2013 Express?

I am not able to run the unit tests in Visual Studio 2013 like I used to be able to run it from the Visual Studio window itself in Visual Studio 2010. I am not able to find anything in NuGet Package Manager or on the web.
Unfortunately this is not possible. The Express SKUs of Visual Studio do not support plugins / extensions.
Try to use NUnit TestAdapter including NUnit. You will find it searching for NUnit in the Manage NuGet Packages window.
I have tested it, and it works fine.
A workaround is in blog post How to invoke NUnit from Visual studio express and execute automation tests.

Embed Visual Studio editor into my app

Is it possible to embed Visual Studio 2010 (Express ?) source code editor into my application.
What is another most preferred way to interconnect my application with Visual Studio?
Don't want to embed my app into visual studio for some religious reasons =)
If you don't want to make your application a plug-in then make a plug-in that provides an interface for your application using some sort of IPC.
Also see Embed Visual Studio 2010 Editor into a Tool Window. As far as I understand, application has to be a plug-in/extension in order to do that.
