I created a .NET application against the JavaScript API and created custom tools. You can check out my code behind. Perhaps that will help: csergent45/SOA-Final · GitHub

I code in VB.NET so if you want or need to convert the code to C#, you can do it here: Convert C# to VB.NET - A free code conversion tool - developer Fusion

The good news is that if your are comfortable with Visual Studio, you can still develop in it in JavaScript. And there is a lot of support for it online and in the GeoNet forums to help you along the way.

Are you new to Visual Studio? I can do a quick screen recording if you want to see how to run it using the JavaScript API.

Here is a screen recording that I show you how to create a single page site in Visual Studio and then run a code example by Esri. You may want to turn the volume of your PC up while listening.

You can check out the Esri tutorial how to create the page in steps:

Build your first application | Guide | ArcGIS API for JavaScript

Also if you are going to the Esri User Conference, they are an introductory session to the JavaScript API, that you should find helpful; more than one if you need it to take it all in.
