This new version brings performance improvements and new capabilities to web, desktop, and mobile platform development. We at [Syncfusion](https://www.syncfusion.com/) also support .NET 6.0 from our [2021 Volume 4](https://www.syncfusion.com/forums/171304/essential-studio-2021-volume-4-main-release-v19-4-0-38-is-available-for-download) release. Now, users can keep up with the latest innovations in creating web and desktop apps. Syncfusion Visual Studio extensions can now create .NET 6.0 apps, convert and migrate projects to .NET 6.0, and add the necessary references for .NET 6.0 projects as part of this support. Let’s explore this new update in detail. ## Prerequisites - [Visual Studio 2022](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/) ## Installing the Syncfusion Visual Studio extensions You can install the Syncfusion Visual Studio extensions either from Visual Studio Marketplace or the Essential Studio® setup. **Note:** To install the extensions from Visual Studio Marketplace, refer to the [Syncfusion VS Extensions Now on the Visual Studio Marketplace!](https://www.syncfusion.com/blogs/post/syncfusion-extensions-in-visual-studio-marketplace.aspx) blog. When creating an app, choose the .NET 6.0 option to create projects with Syncfusion components and .NET 6.0 support. ## Blazor Template Studio The [Blazor Template Studio extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SyncfusionInc.BlazorVSExtension) for Visual Studio helps us to create a Blazor app with Syncfusion components. The Blazor app will be created with the required components’ NuGet references, namespaces, styles, and component render code. This is now available with .NET 6.0 support. To use it, select **.NET 6.0** as the version in the Configuration section like in the following screenshot. ![Syncfusion Blazor Template Studio Window](https://www.syncfusion.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Syncfusion-Blazor-Template-Studio-Window.png)You can use the Syncfusion Blazor [project conversion](https://blazor.syncfusion.com/documentation/visual-studio-integration/vs2019-extensions/convert-project) and [migration](https://blazor.syncfusion.com/documentation/visual-studio-integration/vs2019-extensions/upgrade-project) utilities in .NET 6.0 apps to convert or migrate to the latest Syncfusion version. ### Visual Studio Code project template Also, the Syncfusion [Blazor Visual Studio Code extensions](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SyncfusionInc.Blazor-VSCode-Extensions) are now available with .NET 6.0 support.
