Tools add-ins for Visual Studio
This article reviews the Add-ins infrastructure that has been added to Microsoft Visual Studio, so that developers can more easily add tools for development.
A lot of great tools have been added to Microsoft Visual Studio to support development. However, there will always be additional tools to meet specific requirements. To make it easier to add these additional tools, an Add-ins infrastructure has been provided for developers. The additional tools are available in two places:
- The Add-ins submenu on the Dynamics 365 menu
- The Add-ins submenu on the shortcut menu in the element designer
To make it easier to create your own add-ins, you can select the Dynamics Developer Tools Add-in project type when you create a new project in Visual Studio. This project type has the infrastructure that is required to implement an add-in.
