How to open the Package Manager Console
Open Visual Studio and go to "Tools -> NuGet Package Manger -> Package Manager Console"

How do I browse for packages?
You can view all the packages from You must login or register to view this content. page.

How do I install a package I've found on the NuGet package list?
So let's say you want to install Json.NET, you need to open the NuGet package manager and on the page it has this
You must login or register to view this content.
You just need to type that in and it installs it. The reason you want to follow that is because as you can see, it has -pre that's because it's a pre-release of Json.NET.

The following 2 users say thank you to Winter for this useful post:

Newtonsoft's JSON library is the tits if you're trying to parse an API of some kind. Highly recommend it.
