You want to code in AL more efficiently, but you don't know which VS Code extension to use?
You are a VS Code extension developer searching for features that do not exist yet?

Search no more - but take a look:

You want to dive into Business Central Telemetry, but you lack the skills for KQL?

Now you can just use GitHub Copilot in VSCode and have a conversation about whatever Telemetry with the "BC Telemetry Buddy":

Version 16.1 Reporting Fixed an issue where the compiler updated the Microsoft Word layouts with the namespace for the extended custom xml document and not the standard custom xml. This caused document rendering to fail for repeaters.

Are you a #msdyn365bc developer, and do you like "oldschool" link lists across multiple BC versions with articles, blogs, videos, and extensions?

Then check Kai's list at www.msdynamics.de/viewtopic.ph...! Though the captions are in German, I'm pretty sure you'll find it useful anyway.
