Is it possible to use VS? Is the SDK and all the tools available to use? Is there an installation guide? That would be really good news!

This would be the site. It was announced yesterday at the conference, along with the 3.2.3 SDK (you want to use that with VS Code, and it will work with Eclipse if you have the 3.2.3 Eclipse Plugin)

Just to be clear for everyone reading this... We are providing a MonkeyC extension for Visual Studio Code, *not* Visual Studio. These are two software development tools from Microsoft. We only support the former.

Great news, are there any guides on VScode setup with ConnectIQ SDK available?

https://forums.garmin.com/developer/garmin-developer-virtual-conference-2020/b/news-announcements/posts/connect-iq-track-connect-iq-tools will walk you through installation. We don't have how-to documentation at this moment, but you can view the extension's README to get an idea of what the extension is capable of.

How do we do this?

ctrl-shift P opens the command palette and you'll find it there.
