Hey fellow Dynamics 365 (CRM?) developer.

I see they move in VSCode direction with tools like Power Platform CLI [1], power platform tools extension [2]. PCF (PowerAps Component framework) enabling to develop UI components in frontend framework-of-choice... however none of that is available (yet?) for On-Premise deployment so we're 2nd class citizens. Because of that, haven't been able to play with this and try out so don't know how far that tooling goes.

As a platform, I really like it. Sane, consistent (except some very early stuff there), the backend extensibility - thumbs up for that.

F&O, sadly...


F&O would be former AX? That seems highly rewarded field. I know it only from SQL point of view - It helped grow my SQL skills when SQL would be brought to it's knees (along with the business) due to skewed data distribution and occasional query plan invalidation.


Yep, it's the replacement for AX. I can't say I love working in it, but the clients are massive and as such, it can be a rewarding financial choice. The tooling is poor and the APIs are a bit difficult but it's made for some fun workarounds :)
