I have VS 2012 ultimate RC and recently I got interested in Scala so I was wondering is there a way(plugin) to do simple Scala programming in VS? Googling reveals some promises of it being possible but those informations are over a year old. I know Scala runs on JVM, but the info I mentioned mentions .Net version.
Scala works well in VS Code 2019.
Learn about programming languages supported by VS Code. These include: C++ - C# - CSS - Dart - Dockerfile - F# - Go - HTML - Java - JavaScript - JSON - Julia - Less - Markdown - PHP - PowerShell - Python - R - Rust - SCSS - T-SQL - TypeScript.
As of march '12 it wasn't possible:
Visual Studio supports step-debugging of Scala.NET programs but not their editing. Until a VS extension for Scala arrives, Scala.NET programs can be developed with an existing (JVM-based) IDE
Source paper
The project looks a bit abandoned.
Update: 8 September 2015
The Scala.NET project was discontinued (I believe due to low interest), Miguel Garcia who is the guy behind this backend switched to work on GenB
