On the right, you will see a big list of project templates, and notice the second one (it’s the second on my list at least) - From Existing Node.js code. Under the Templates section you should be able to expand a JavaScript section and then choose Node.js.

But first, you have to have Visual Studio (I’m running the free Visual Studio Community 2013 with Update 4) and the Node.js Tools for Visual Studio.įirst, open Visual Studio and choose File | New Project… That’s the file we essentially need to create in an existing project, but how? It’s not exactly a new project, but according to Visual Studio’s definition, it’s not an existing project either. That’s the file that lights VS up with all of the additional help that’s specific to Node.js. When you create a new Node.js project in Visual Studio, it gives you the basic files - app.js, package.json, and README.md - and then it gives you a. I have a lot of Node.js code on my box and occasionally I’ll get into a situation when I have an existing Node.js project (one that I didn’t create initially using Visual Studio), and I want to open it in VS.
Whether I’m writing C# or JavaScript, I still want to do it in Visual Studio. VS does so many things to support the developer, that I myself (and millions of others) define it as indispensable. Working on a coding project inside of Visual Studio is hugely helpful.
