We tried Live Share once on Visual Studio 2017 but it did not work because our solutions are stored in a separate tree from projects (We structured this way because our solutions share projects) - but is not compatible with Live Share. I hope this can be resolved some time.

Example:
src\app1\sln1.sln
src\app2\sln2.sln
src\proj\proj1.csproj
src\proj\proj2.csproj
src\proj\proj3.csproj
src\proj\proj4.csproj

Hey! This issue has been resolved, so if you install VS2019 (which includes Live Share out-of-the-box) or update the extension, then you should be good to go. Please let me know if you run into any issues!
