You don't need Visual Studio for C#, I write all C# and F# in VS Code with official MS extension, you can use the dotnet CLI to do everything (install packages, build tasks, etc, just like cargo/npm/etc).

The experience is surprisingly good.

If you want to create and build + run a .NET web API, you just do:

"dotnet new webapi"

>cd into the directory

"dotnet run"
