Using Javascript in visual studio

Question

I'd like to start using Visual Studio for Mac with Javascript, but I'm not quite sure how I would start seeing as I only see prompts for using C# or F# and the like. Do I need to download something else or is this feature offered for the Mac version?

What do you mean by using javascript in VS? VS text editor can be used to write javascript by default. — apires

Should I just open a javascript file with it? On my version I don't get an option to start JS project the same as it does a C# or F# project. — Clyde Brown

You need to install useful modules, such as Javascript (ES6) code snippets, etc. which will make your coding much more comfortable. — DrunkDevKek

Oh, it appears there's a Marketplace for VS where you can download a ton of functionality — Clyde Brown

When you create a project (such as web forms) in Visual studio, add a JS item and there you can work on it.

If you want a light program that works perfectly fine with HTML, CSS, JS
