This newcomer to VS allows the user to consume extensions posted to the Visual Studio Gallery right from within VS itself. It provides the ability to search and browse through the gallery's repository as well as manage the extensions you already have installed on your machine. We think it represents a big step forward in our hope to take the ecosystem to new heights. Enjoy!<img src="http://channel9.msdn.com/476577/WebViewBug.aspx?EVT=0" height="1" width="1" alt="" />http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/cgranger/The-VS2010-Extension-Manager/http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/cgranger/The-VS2010-Extension-Manager/Wed, 01 Jul 2009 20:21:00 GMThttp://mschnlnine.vo.llnwd.net/d1/ch9/7/7/5/6/7/4/VS2010ExtensionManager_2MB_ch9.wmv5279http://channel9.msdn.com/476577/WebViewBug.aspx?EVT=0One of the big initiatives for Visual Studio 2010 was to incorporate the community directly into the IDE itself and the extension manager was created to achieve just that.

The new project dialog (NPD), for example, recieved a complete overhaul as well as some new functionality. Our goal was to make the NPD more efficient to use via the ability to search and order results, as well as more functional through the integration with the Visual Studio Gallery. What does this mean to you? You can get to what you need much faster, and you can discover community generated templates right from within Visual Studio itself.<img src="http://channel9.msdn.com/475185/WebViewBug.aspx?EVT=0" height="1" width="1" alt="" />http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/cgranger/The-new-project-dialog/http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/cgranger/The-new-project-dialog/Tue, 23 Jun 2009 19:11:00 GMThttp://mschnlnine.vo.llnwd.net/d1/ch9/5/8/1/5/7/4/VS2010NPD_2MB_ch9.wmv4157http://channel9.msdn.com/475185/WebViewBug.aspx?EVT=0With the shell refresh that is coming in Visual Studio 2010, a great deal of the UI has been replaced with new Windows Presentation Foundation parts.
