Hi guys,
I was wondering why VS Express still exists when we have VS Community. I only use VS Express because it takes up less space than VS Community. Apart from space, I cant think of a reason to use VS Express.
Will VS Community replace VS Express and are there any benefits for using VS Express?
Thanks :-)
I think it depends on your computer. VS Community needs a powerful PC with at least Win 7.
For older and less powerful PCs the Express editions are better.

Thanks for your response.
I understand that VS Express is less demanding, but I dont see why Microsoft would continue to develop such a beastly program like VS Express when VS Express would only appeal to a very small percentage of VS users.
Thanks :-)
Express still exists, targeted to specific platforms. Such as desktop, UWP, web. Community combines the features of the individual Express into a single package.
MS is really pushing VS Code, it works on Mac, Linux and Windows.
