About Visual Assist

Visual Assist is an extension for the Visual Studio development environment that adds to the IDE's functionality when working with source code, in particular for the C and C++ languages.

An extension of this kind is typically used by software developers who regularly work on larger C/C++ code bases, for example in systems-level software, technical applications, or research software, and who want support for navigating and editing code that Visual Studio does not provide out of the box to the same depth for C/C++.

As an extension, Visual Assist builds on an existing IDE rather than replacing Visual Studio; it adds targeted capability for a particular language focus. This distinguishes it from standalone editors or IDEs and places it instead among the IDE add-on tools within development tools.

For universities and research institutions with C/C++-heavy software development, for example in technical institutes or computing centers, such an extension can enhance an existing Visual Studio environment in a targeted way, without requiring a change of development environment.
