Can I use Visual Studio 2017 to write the code in custom controllers and debug application?
Do I have to do any additional configuration or just open the solution in visual studio?
I know I can use Visual Studio Code but I prefer Visual Studio 2017.
Visual Studio 2017 (Professional, Community or other edition) should work just fine with Radzen applications.
When running through visual studio I'm getting the error message below:

First make sure that Radzen isn't running. Then check if the following directory exists <your radzen app directory>\client\node_modules. If it exists delete it. Finally in order to run Radzen applications from Visual Studio you need to have NodeJS installed.
- Radzen is not running
- node_modules directory not exists in client directory
- node.js 11.3.0
- open solution with visual studio and run
- same problem
Hi @marden,
Please call npm install in client folder before running from Visual Studio. The MS SPA service called npm install automatically at some point however it seems no longer, we will research how to fix this.

HI @marden,
Just to let you know that we've released Radzen 2.8.6 where npm install will be called automatically. More info how to run Radzen app from VS Code, VS and cmd can be found here:

Hello @enchev
Thanks for the support, follow the step by step how I did it:
- Open CMD with admin rights
- Navigate to the client directory, mine is on disk D:\ I used the command below in CMD
cd /d D:\Dev\Projetos\Radzen\ColecaoRadzen\ColecaoRadzen\client - Now that you are in the client directory run the command below in CMD
nmp install - Wait for the installation
- When you finish the installation open visual studio 2017
- Set the project as startup project
- Run the application
Hello @enchev
npm install installs a huge amount of packages, will I need all these packages?
Which IDE do you advise to use? Visual Studio or VS Code?
I would just like to have an efficient code editor to work in conjunction with Radzen, which provided me with intelisense and debug in a simple way
Yes, you need all of them.
It is a matter of choice, for me Visual Studio Code is better since it is lighter and still provides everything needed (debugging, intelisense, etc.). For C# I'm using GitHub - dotnet/vscode-csharp: Official C# support for Visual Studio Code
@enchev thank you very much
