This is an interesting project for sure. WinGDB is quite similar.

From the rationale page:

"Large numbers of these developers world-wide use Visual Studio as their primary IDE. Either by preference, or other external factors."

I wonder if having fairly good tooling is one of those factors? And if so, will this encourage people to stick to Visual Studio?

I'd recommend developers to try Qt Creator for Android (there's no requirement to use Qt with it if you don't want to). IMHO, for native development it is already good, improving rapidly and has the advantage of being cross platform and Open Source, though it's build system (qmake .pro/.pri) is arguably worse than MSBuild. Once Qbs support is finished I'll happily retract that statement.
