Business value

To speed up AL project creation in Visual Studio Code, we added a command that lets you select predefined project templates. In this release, partners can't provide their own templates. We added two Copilot samples that align with the GitHub sample repositories. These samples make it easier to build new Copilot features in Business Central. We also added the classic Hello World AL project.

Feature details

To create a new template-based AL project in Visual Studio Code, use the AL: New Project command. The shortcut is Alt+A Alt+P.

When you run the command, choose to create Copilot sample apps or the classic Hello World AL project.
