Microsoft Visual F# Source Code Format | Microsoft | Developer Files |
FS (Visual F# Source) files are text files that contain Open Standard source code written in the Microsoft .NET programming language, F#. This file type is commonly associated with Visual Studio, Microsoft's Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for creating applications based on the.NET framework. F# files usually contain functions and statements written in a functional programming style, including match patterns, expression and declaration syntax, as well as the ability to leverage existing.NET libraries.
Features and Related Information
Files with the.fs extension are source codes written in the F#, one of the.NET languages. The programming language uses implementations such as type providers, workflows, asynchronous workflows and agents for parallel computation. The F# language provides interactive code execution through C# and Visual Basic integration features. The program also supports object-oriented app development for Windows, iOS and Android platforms.
The.fs extension is similar to other file formats, such as .FSX, FSHARP, and .FSI, which are also used by Visual Studio for writing different types of applications.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .FS) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .FS extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .FS file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .FS extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .FS extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .FS file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .FS file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .FS file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .FS file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .FS file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
