With AL developement our development team is missing a tool as we had previously with Prism, having
- An overview of all AL code
- Get easy/fast search functions to look into modules and dependencies.
There some basic workaround with Visual Studio Code but look underperforming
What is your experience on this?
Hi,
I posted this question on Twitter and received a few responses:

Hi,
AL Language coding is similar to NAV Cside, except the fact that the is only with respect to the structure on the objects.
But if you want to know the properties then you can make use of samples snippets.
Also to get the brief idea of how Al looks then export your NAV objects in Text and open the text file.
You can also make use of TexttoAl to convert your NAV code to AL.
And there is doc.microsoft.com for your reference.
If you need any help community can also help you out.
