P.S.

If you need to modify (create a new version of BaseApp extension) BaseApp then you need Publish it… for the docker story this post can be useful:

    Strange... first line has been commented in my script... (I think you already have it). As pre-requisite you should install navcontainerhelper

    Hi

    I ran the command  "install-module navcontainerhelper -force"  and got the error below

    WARNING: Cannot access 'ci.appveyor.com/.../docker-powershell-dev'. Are you missing 'Credential' parameter in

    the cmdlet?
