Hello,
I am somewhat new to Dynamics 365 CRM. I will be taking a Developer course soon. Currently my company uses Visual Studio 2017 Community. I have read some posts talking about which VS editions CRM developers use.
My question is do I need something better than Community. If so, what is the difference or advantages?
Thanks

For my experience community edition is enough to do CRM development , however you can check below comparison link among community , professional and enterprise edition.
Hi j12obrien,
This article will teach you how to install the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Developer Toolkit with Visual Studio 2017.
Do you know if you can in Community. I'm trying to install the sdk and toolkit and I am getting an error when installing. I dont know if i should click yes and risk messing up my entire Visual Studio Community
Hi j12obrien,
I use Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise 2017, but Visual Studio Professional, and Visual Studio Community are also fine for CRM Development. This page gives a basic comparison of Visual Studio 2017 IDEs.
Hi..
You don't need something better than community. You need Visual Studio to write code for plugin, custom workflow activities, SSRS reports, JavaScript and Html files.
I think you can do all these thing in visual studio community.
