My friend and I try to collaborate using Live-Share of Visual Studio. There are certain problems with that, such as:
- Only the host gets the console windows when compiling.
- Only the host see the information about the compilation.
- Only the host can see the errors in the code (before we run the code).
- Only the host can see color highlights in the code and the code suggestion only appear to the host.
- It's hard for the guest to add files to our project.
- We are using GitHub for our project.
Is there a better way of overcoming those issues? maybe there are alternatives for Live-Share?
I have used Live-Share with a friend before in the past to help with homework. Is it Visual Studio Code? Make sure you are both on the same console window, and that they have read (possible write if you really trust your friend) permissions.
If it's just normal Visual Studio, I can't be much help here
