1. Install IDE

RapidCode should be compatible with any development environment. We typically recommend using one of the Visual Studio options as we have the most experience using them.

What is an IDE?

• Visual Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) from Microsoft. It is used to develop computer programs for Microsoft Windows and websites, web apps, web services, and mobile apps.
