Does anyone have an opinion of the VisualMicro Arduino plugin for Visual Studio?

I found this Visual Studio plugin, VisualMicro. It claims to be able to fully support all Arduino boards, but I'm skeptical.

My main worries:

Does it work with all the Arduino sketches I've already made?

Will it be able to find and use the Arduino libraries I've got installed?

Will it be able to work with my other dev boards that I've been using with the Arduino IDE? (Teensy, Adafruit Flora)

Thanks in advance!

Why don't you have a look at all the online documentation and it will be clear that it is the best IDE solution available.
It has been going for several years and is very well supported.

I've been using it for 5 years and it's excellent. The very few times I've had to revert to the 'Arduino IDE' I feel like I'm going back to prehistoric times.
