    Razor .cshtml do i need to install MVC for visual studio

    Hi i watched the video
    http://blog.percipientstudios.com/2011/3/3/how-to-umbraco-razor-intellisense-and-debugging.aspx

    But i can't get intellisense working in visual studio because the file type .cshtml has no associated editor.
    1. Do i need to install ASP.NET MVC first from http://www.asp.net/mvc so i can get the razor editor?
    2.     Does my hosting require MVC installation?
    3. Performance:     which is faster XSLT vs Razor, i know that XSLT uses caching mechanism stored in AppData/umbraco.config but razor seems much more convenient.

    Thank u

    Best regards,
    Nelsen

    you need to install mvc 3 to get the debug option and the editor inside VS
    about the cache i'm not sure.

    Thank yep i installed MVC3, but wondering why before my razor installation, the razor syntax works just fine.
    Can i safely assume that i do not need to cross check my hosting whether they have installed MVC3.
    I am just amazed by the ease of use of razor, don't think i'm gonna use XSLT anytime soon anymore :)
