Atmel (Arduino CPU) has a product, Atmel Studio 6.2, that uses Visual
Studio. You can install it and try it, if you have the time, it takes
forever to start and their attempt at a 'Wizard' is only a sales tool to
market eval. boards. They were using Eclipse and out of the blue came up
with with this product. I can only guess that they figured to create
something really simple like the Arduino IDE for writing assembly code.
I have been using Eclipse for embedded processors but before that it was
Ultra Studio, before that it was Brief, none of those will work with Julia.
I tried Julia Studio and like it, the packages are on the left, the output
console has a clear button and the editor works for me using AsuType for
keystroke processing. When they have compiler support I'll look at using
Ultra Studio or Eclipse but until then this works.
