Microsoft announces Visual Studio 2019 general availability

During a virtual launch event today, Microsoft announced that Visual Studio 2019 is now generally available. The new IDE contains a number of new features, such as making it easier to clone a Git repo, and there are improvements for template selection. There's also a new feature called Live Share. Live Share lets you collaborate with other developers in real time. Announced at Build 2018 last year, it's been in preview ever since. Since then, Microsoft has added support for languages like C++ and Python, and it's started allowing guests to start debugging sessions. Live Share works with both Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio Code. This release includes Visual Studio for the Mac.
