Features:

  • Visual project generation
  • TypeScript compilation
  • Less compilation
  • Automatic live reload
  • pbiviz packaging (for distribution)

Basic Setup

Before you can get started you'll need to install the tools. This should only take a few seconds.

Dependencies

Before you can run (or install) the command line tools you must install NodeJS.

Installation

To install the command line tools simply run the following command

npm install -g powerbi-visuals-tools
