mini ASK HN: would there be any interest in supporting Julia in Visual Studio? (as a free/oss plugin). i lead the Python Tools for Visual Studio project at msft and would be curious if there is interest. as a side note, if you do you use Python & require Python/C++ debugging, PTVS now supports it: ▶ this video

Two highlights from the release notes: - Starting with VS2013, we’re happy to announce that PTVS is “in the box”. This means when you install Visual Studio, there is a an existing “Python” download link which will install PTVS for you. - Mixed-mode debugging! Alpha introduced remote debugging on Linux and MacOS. Beta introduces mixed Python and C/C++ debugging. Please refer to the documentation or this video: ▶ this video
