Visual Studio for Mac is “a counterpart of the Windows version of Visual Studio at its heart,” Microsoft says, and it has a familiar workspace with a tabbed source code editor, Solution and Toolbox views, and more. Visual Studio Community, for example, the much-improved free version of the software for non-enterprise users, has now been downloaded 5 million times since its launch seven months ago.

AFAIK, Visual Studio isn't and never has been available to run on OS X, so you'd have to either run it under Boot Camp or a VM app, such as Parallels Desktop (I'm a Parallels user, so that's what I usually reommend).
Is 256GB enough? Just barely. I've a lean, mean 512GB SSD and I use just a portion of that with a full 377GB free (after I finally consolidated my entire iTunes library onto an external drive). And I run XP under Parallels. SO you could get by with 256GB. And, if you wish to upgrade later, OWC has a 480GB storage card that you can install - for $580 (compare that to the cost of the Apple 512GB upgrade - I think that you come out cheaper with Apple).
Yes, you could get by with 256GB - keeping in mind that you can always upgrade to a larger capacity card later on.
