How can I code simultaneously with a friend on Visual Studio?

Question

Is there an addon or extension for Visual Studio that will enable me to code C# programs with a fellow programmer simultaneously? Simultaneous as in my friend sees what I am typing, as I am typing it.

Answer 1

The tool you are looking for is VS Anywhere.

Here you can see a video on YouTube. You can download from Visual Studio Gallery, and you can look for more information on the VS Anywhere web page.

(I'm the VS Anywhere owner.)

Answer 2

I can't say I've done this much (I helped someone with an Android program via a GoToMeeting session once!), but I would say any sort of screen sharing software would be your best bet. There are many options, but I would probably start with something like TeamViewer, Skype, or join.me and see if it fits the bill.
