Starter Extensions for Visual Studio Code and Power BI (with Štěpán Rešl)

[@walterstevens8676]

This was kinda interesting but way beyond my current level. Just trying to work out how the process of coding in vs would work and how I would then get the code back into the PBI report? Is it a manual process? I think it was alluded to in the SDK discussion, but not clearly enough for a simpleton like me...

If you're editing the model file in VS code, any chances would be there after saving the file, then reopening the report in Power BI Desktop. If you're not using PBIP files yet today, Power BI desktop is still a fine place to develop. VS Code is definitely in the advanced realm of people who like to code a lot more, nice, but not needed :)

@@HavensConsultingThanks so you can edit the "model file"? Is that the pbip file? How do you connect to it, via the SDK stuff?

@@walterstevens8676 PBIP creates a whole folder structure with model files, report files, page files, etc.

Here's a livestream that should help explain that better :)
