As currently online IDE does not support visual studio exporting, there are at least 2 python modules which would allow you:

Project generator has some support for visual studio , or there's platformIO which has the same. You can have a look at those 2 to see which one fits your needs.

Project generator mbed example (needs project generator , use visual_studio_make_gcc_arm tool for exporting) https://github.com/project-generator/project_generator_mbed_examples

PlatformIO: https://github.com/platformio/platformio

could your answer be posted on the page Venushka referred to? "https://developer.mbed.org/cookbook/Coding-with-MS-Visual-Studio ".
