My experience of installing VS Community Edition several years ago was that it downloaded a lot of dependencies when I requested a fairly basic C# and C++ environment: versions of SQLXML, Windows SDK, etc, which had to be managed and upgraded separately.

Is it much more self-contained now? perhaps via nuget?
