Anyone tried already? How it feels?
I'm using this for new projects. It feels much cleaner than Visual Studio 2010. For me it feels much like the Expression Studio IDE (which I like).
A lot of the features you had to get from the Productivity Power Tools pack are now built in like pinning frequently used files and the Solution Explorer works kind of like Solution Navigator does in the pack.
I really like the ability to preview a file without opening it.
JavaScript support is greatly improved.
HTML5 DOM support is nice.
FINALLY Iterators in VB without having to write your own generator function!
The Async feature is AWESOME!
Finally modal binding in ASP.NET Web Forms! I hated switching from a MVC project to a Web Forms project because I couldn't use Action methods.
when it's getting expired..?
I'd really love for you to elaborate on this. I'm keeping my fingers crossed on this one in anticipation of some good news :DQuote:

You can actually add a reference comment to the file to let VS know more about it.
Here's how the reference would look.
-----Code:/// <reference path="scripts/knockout.js" />
Found out a couple more features in the web world that I'm really liking as well.
There's a nice browser switcher on the toolbar so you don't have to r-click browse with or have an add-on to select them.
If you right click a page and go to Browse with you can Ctrl+Click multiple browsers and then hit the Set as Default button. From there you can Ctrl+F5 to launch multiple browsers at the same time. (The browser switcher I mentioned earlier will show Multiple-browsers as well).
Here's a nice article by Scott Hanselman on some other nice features: Features NO ONE NOTICED in Visual Studio 11 Express Beta for Web
Ya I was really hoping that this issue was addressed. Intellisense support for javascript in VS2008 is piss poor. This is good news.Quote:
