  1. No Visual Studio Express 2019 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 2, Interesting

    No free version is available. Visual Studio Community is quite different from Visual Studio Express.

    Gosh, the hate here for VB6 was a force, but I too loved the language.
    I wrote a commercial scientific instrument interface in VB6 with database driven dynamic controls, real time graphing and instrument control.
    I had to do all the engineering, Schematic, PCB, mechanical, embedded firmware, and PC app. No way I could have developed that as one man developer 20 years ago without VB6. (Maybe Delphi, but I didn’t have that dev stack)
