    Recently,  Microsoft has announced the availability of Preview of Visual Studio  IntelliCode in its Build 2018 developer’s conference. This is a new  experimental tool for Visual Studio users bringing more of the company’s  artificial intelligence smart to software development.
It  is a set of AI-assisted capabilities which improves the developer’s  productivity with features like contextual, IntelliSense and focused  reviews for pull requests.
 
The company states - 
“The  IntelliCode extension augments productivity features in Visual Studio  2017 with insights based on understanding your code combined with  machine learning. The first iteration of this extension enhances your  IntelliSense experience by sorting completion items—which are  recommended in your code context--to the top of the list.”
 
According  to the company, IntelliCode is now applicable only for C# code but in  future, it will be upgraded to support more languages.
