C# - Installation

The best and easiest way to run C# Programms is to use Visual Studio IDE.

Installation of Visual Studio Community edition for Windows OS

Below are the steps to download and install the free version of Visual Studio Community edition on Windows OS :

Goto the below link and download the latest version of Visual Studio Community edition.

https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/community/

Once Visual Studio Community edition is downloaded. Click on the exe file to install.

Then you get the Visual Studio Installer. Click on 'Continue' to proceed.

After the Visual Studio Community edition is installed, select 'ASP.NET and web development' and click on Install.

Once the Installation is complete. Click on 'Start Visual Studio'.

Now, click on 'create a new project'.

Then click on 'console app' and click 'next'.

Then provide a 'Project Name' and specify the 'Location' where your application needs to be stored.

Now, click on 'Create'.

And you have the application opened.

Now you can type the basic application to print 'Hello World'.

Example :
```
public class TestApplication
{
	public static void Main(string[] args)
	{
		System.Console.WriteLine ("Hello World");
	}
}
```
I have typed the same piece of code in the 'Visual Studio' application.

Then click on the play button on top.

And a different screen opens and you can see the output as 'Hello World'.
