The language used to develop in Business Central is called AL, You can read more about that here.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/developer/devenv-get-started

But you are correct, no special extra license is needed for you to develop in AL Using VS Code.

Yes, the Business Central API's can be consumed with the use for the .net framework.

Hi,

Adding more information, you can use also Azure functions which can be written in other languages and can be used in AL code.

Thanks.

.NET:

As long as you run BC on an "OnPrem" environment (target = OnPrem in the app.json) you can use .Net in the same way NAV allowed you to so.

In case your company will go for the Saas version, you will have to find workarounds. Like putting your .NET-functions into AzureFunctions and consuming those, or creating a Service in your OnPrem environment and access your old functions by calling them with webservices.

WebDevelopment:

yes, you can use Control-Addins to use javascript and generate any HTML-Output you like with that. (inside an Iframe in the BC Web App)

Here is an introduction:

docs.microsoft.com/.../devenv-control-addin-object

VSCode in general supports all kinds of languages, so you can program all of this in the same environment.
