Visual Studio's innovation' was the incorporation of mutiple languages within the IDE with intergration between them.
The UCSD p-System provided an IDE (albeit not a graphical IDE) that supported mixing Pascal, Fortran, and Assembly language (typically PDP-11 or Z-80) circa 1980.

I started on Visual Studio 6 using VB. The fact I could then 'migrate' to the C based languages without learning a new interface and IDE 'quirks' was wonderful
It became THE Windows programing IDE
Borland Delphi, if memory serves, did not become multi language until later in its life
