Microsoft has revealed a list of new changes in Visual Studio 2015, which can be viewed here:
- Update on save for Ripple – no need to rebuild!
- Debug an iOS version of your app from Visual Studio when it is deployed to the iOS Simulator or a connected device on a Mac
- Improved security and simplified configuration for the included remote iOS build agent
- An improved plugin management experience that includes support for adding custom plugins to your project from Git or the filesystem
