Introduction
In this article, let us see how to install Visual Studio 2019 and using it with .NET Core 3.0, we will make some changes to the Visual Studio 2019 IDE followed by creating a new project in VS 2019.
Step 1 - Installing .NET Core 3 Preview 1
The installation of Preview 1 of .NET Core 3 can be learned from
here. On successful completion of this process of installation, open the CMD and run the following command.

This command will return the .NET Core 3 version details that confirm that the tool has been installed.

As in previous versions, it will be necessary to define which workloads should be installed with VS 2019.
After confirming these settings, we will start the installation procedure.
And at the end of this process, there will appear Preview 1 of Visual Studio 2019 as IDE option.
Step 3 - Some changes in Visual Studio IDE
When accessing Visual Studio 2019 for the first time, we will come across a new interface for opening or creating the projects.
Step 4 - Create New Project
Now, create the New Project in VS 2019. The available templates will appear on a window like below.
Choosing the ASP.NET Core Web Application template will, then, bring up the following form.
Confirming these settings, VS 2019 will pop a template selection screen (already displaying the option to use ASP.NET Core 3.0).
Congratulations, the project will finally load in the IDE to perform the tasks like coding and debugging.
