Visual Studio

When researching what application environment to use for my frontend application, my instructor recommended a Windows Forms application through Visual Studio for its drag-and-drop interface designer and the intuitive debugging. Windows Forms is event-driven, meaning it spends much of its time just waiting for the user to do something. This comes in handy when designing an application because each and every control can be considered an event. Thankfully, Windows Forms is limited to simple procedures and is robust enough to be heavily configured for specific purposes. In this way, not every control has to be used in the way you'd expect and events can be specified on controls that serve no obvious function.
