Create a new project in VS Code

The AL sample "Hello World" project https://github.com/microsoft/AL/tree/master/samples/HelloWorld is included in AL when using the "AL:Go" command.

Creating and publishing the "Hello World" project is useful to make sure your launch.json and app.json is correctly configured, before adding the additional complexity of referencing the Mobile WMS App.

• Press CTRL + SHIFT + P
• AL:GO!

Select target

• bc15 =  Target platform 4.0
• bc14 = Target platform 3.0
• bc13 = Target platform 2.0

Default folder is: C:\Users\xxx\Documents\AL\ALProjectxx

Update launch.json to reference your own development server i.e.:

{

    "version": "0.2.0",

    "configurations": [

        {

            "type": "al",

            "request": "launch",

            "name": "DOCKER01",

            "server": "http://10.10.xx.xx:5500",

            "port": 55049,

            "serverInstance": "NAV",

            "authentication": "UserPassword",

            "startupObjectId": 22,

            "startupObjectType": "Page",

            "breakOnError": true,

            "launchBrowser": true,

            "schemaUpdateMode": "Synchronize"

        }

    ]

}
