IDE Extensions for Visual Studio Express

Question

Just a quickie question about MS Visual Studio Express editions. Can extensions like Jetbrains ReSharper or the Python Tools for VS be installed and made to work with the express editions of Visual Studio?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, No and No.

Re-sharper:

Express editions of Visual Studio do not support Add-Ins and extensions, so ReSharper doesn't work with them.

Python Tools for VS :

NOTE: you cannot install PTVS (or any extension for that matter) into the VS Express editions.
