Learnxpress feels that the Visual Studio survey is incomplete as Microsoft doesn’t collect any written feedback from developers. There should be a input box to enable developers to provide the details of the new features they would like to see in the upcoming versions of Visual Studio.
If you are from United States, you will be eligible to participate in sweepstakes for a chance to win a $100 or $50 Visa gift card. You should note that you are eligible to win only if you are from United States.
However, you can participate in the survey and provide your valuable feedback.
