The language and compiler is only half of the story for being productive and creating great apps and solutions. While Elements comes with its own development environments, Fire and Water, on Windows it also provides integration with Microsoft's Visual Studio IDE, for developers who already have a copy of Visual Studio 2015, 2017 or 2019 (Community, Professional or higher) installed and prefer working in that environment.

The language and compiler is only half of the story for being productive and creating great apps and solutions. On Windows, Elements rounds off the development experience with a strong development environment built on the Microsoft Visual Studio IDE. For developers who already have a copy of Visual Studio 2012, 2013 or 2015 (Community, Professional or higher) installed, Elements seamlessly integrates itself with the existing development environment, so that you can use the RemObjects C#, Oxygene and Swift languages next to Visual C# and Visual Basic.
