Thanks in advance,

Is it possible to use VS? Is the SDK and all the tools available to use? Is there an installation guide? That would be really good news!

We released an alpha version of an extension for Visual Studio Code yesterday. It's available in the marketplace if you search for Garmin. It's the extension with the blue IQ logo. It's not yet at…

This would be the site. It was announced yesterday at the conference, along with the 3.2.3 SDK (you want to use that with VS Code, and it will work with Eclipse if you have the 3.2.3 Eclipse Plugin)

"connectiq-sdk-manager-windows_3.2.3"
doesn't contain any help/readme files!

They are in the root of the SDK, and in VS Code, you can use "Monkey C: View Documentation".

The API doc is in the doc folder.

I am wondering this too. there is no monkey file in the sdk bin folder. Where do I run this? Terminal in vs code? get this error:
Connect IQ: Verify Installation

Run VS Code commands using the command palette:

- F12

- CTRL-SHIFT-P (Windows)

- CMD-SHIFT-P (Mac)

(The CTRL/CMD-SHIFT-P shortcuts are more useful than F12 because there's a similar shortcut to quickly open files: CTRL/CMD-P).

Once the command palette opens, you can type to do a fuzzy search of all commands:

(e.g. "Monkey C: Verify Installation")

ah, so its more for the configuration of vscode. If garmin is reading this that should be added to the instruction. Thanks

Been away for a while and decided to try VSCode, downloaded it, the SDK and installed the Monkey C extension. However, I see no related commands in the palette. The extension is listed as "globally enabled" but the runtime status says "not yet activated". Is the status unrelated to the stuff not showing up in the command palette, or?
