Diagnostics PM Sagar Shetty continues taking us on a tour of the Visual Studio profiling tools. Today he shows how you can see how much memory your app uses and what code paths allocate the most memory by using the .NET Object Allocation tool. Learn more about profiling in Visual Studio at https://aka.ms/vsprofilingdocs. Learn more about the .NET Object Allocation tool here.

Want to see Microsoft's vision for cloud-powered development environments that enable developers to get up and running quickly and work from anywhere on any platform? Visual Studio PM Vix Ryan shows the ease of power of GitHub Codespaces. To learn more and request early access, go to https://github.com/features/codespaces.

You know that asynchronous programming makes your UI more responsive. Did you know that you can use the .NET Async tool to profile your async code? Diagnostics PM Sagar Shetty shows how to use this tool. Learn more about profiling in Visual Studio at https://aka.ms/vsprofilingdocs. Learn more about the .NET Async tool here.

Does your app make database queries? Want to improve its performance? Profiler PM Esteban Herrera shows how to use the Database tool to collect and analyze information about individual queries. Learn more about profiling in Visual Studio at https://aka.ms/vsprofilingdocs. Learn more about the Database tool here.

A good way to start investigating performance issues in your app is to understand its CPU usage. Profiler PM Esteban Herrera shows how to collect and analyze CPU usage data for your applications. Learn more about profiling in Visual Studio at https://aka.ms/vsprofilingdocs. Learn more about the CPU Usage tool here.

Setting up and running a microservice application locally can be time-consuming and complex.

Visual Studio IntelliCode uses machine learning to offer useful, contextually rich code completion suggestion, in-line as you code. In this episode, PM Caty Caldwell shows a new feature of IntelliCode where you can get starred contextual completion suggestions for your own types. She shows how to train a model just for your codebase and share it with anyone who has access to your code.

The Visual Studio team has spent quite a bit of time recently improving Git integration in Visual Studio 2019. PMs Pratik Nadagouda and Taysser Gherfal show the latest updates, including the new Git Repository window and Merge Conflict Resolution improvements, as well as additional ease of use features. For more information, see the blog post at https://aka.ms/newvsgitblog. VS Git Integration documentation: https://aka.ms/vsgitdocs

The .NET Productivity team (a.k.a. Roslyn) is constantly thinking of new ways to make .NET developers more productive. Roslyn PM Mika Dumont shows a number of the latest features that make your coding life better, including her favorite (IntelliSense completion in DateTime and TimeSpan string literals). See the .NET blog post at aka.ms/vstproductivity for more details.

Source Generators are a new C# feature currently in preview that runs during compilation and can inspect your program to produce additional files that are compiled together with the rest of your code. Roslyn PMs Chris Sienkiewicz and Phillip Carter show how this works and how you can benefit from it in Visual Studio. For more information on this, check out the Visual Studio blog post here.
