I wasn't aware of Golang. I knew there is something called Go. Is there any good resource to get to know it better? Preferably video/podcast.

Golang is the name typically given to the "go lang"uage. I'm a Pluralsight subscriber so I use Search | Pluralsight[^] but the place to start is golang[^] itself.

Hi guys,
I was looking for the visual studio express 2017 and the site of Microsoft is offering me the visual studio 2017 community.
Have you used it? Where are the differences?
I am interested on practice mainly with C++, C# and WPF
is it better?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

That's (Community) the one you want.
I've used it and it is great.
They offer free use on Visual Studio Community up to size of your Enterprise.
Very helpful for indie devs.
AT bottom of page they even state:
Quote: For individuals
Any individual developer can use Visual Studio Community to create their own free or paid apps.

Thanks for your comment.
I had seen the quote, but I thought I was mixing something. Last time I downloaded the express version (2012) it was only allowed for "non-paid" products.

Community is express now. I believe express ended with 2013. 2015 and 2017 both have community editions with are the free versions. Free is the best price.

My last download was the 2012 Express... let's see.

I already saw that before posting. If you see in the bottom the "express" is still listed, that's when I started having doubts.
I will try the community. Thanks for the comment.

The only available options for Visual Studio 2017 so far is either "community", "professional", or "enterprise". The "community" edition is exactly the same as "express" edition.
When making a choice about the edition, I basically refer to Compare Visual Studio Product Offerings | Visual Studio[^]
As far as I know "enterprise" edition is for team development, while "professional" edition is slightly the same as the "community" edition, *BUT* supports the unit testing just like the "enterprise". In turn the "enterprise" edition supports Microsoft Team Foundation Server integration, as well as various dev tools for developing apps by a team of developers.
If you don't need the either team foundation server integration or unit testing, the "community" edition is just for you, and fit all your needs in apps development. Also, there's an edition for iMac development.

in the page linked by David Crow above (where I was) there are a link in the bottom that say "do you still want the express edition?"
That's why I had doubts. But I am going to check out the community version, since every of you (guys I respect) speak good of it
thanks for the comments

I could probably adjust and live with community edition (at work) if I wanted, but I regularly use the pro features, so I've the pro version at work. Enterprise edition is not adding as much value for the $$ difference, so pro it is.
My personal laptop runs the community edition though.

I will very probably have the enterprise at work.
I just want to get back in fluent usage of the interface and practice a bit since it has been a while since I used VS last time. Community will certainly fulfill my needs.

I get everything that Pro has, in Community. If you read the fine print, I believe Pro is for larger dev teams (> 5).
I have unit testing, tfs, etc, in Community edition.
I use Pro at work and Community at home.

This is an inaccurate comment.
I have both in Community and use both.
Pro is for larger teams > 5.

Specifically, I use the "enterprise" edition since it supports the all dev tools and features whatever you need.
