ABSTRACT:

Bring Your Own Tools to IBM i - Git, VS Code, RDi, and more!

The IBM i development environment is changing with exciting new tools such as Git, Merlin, VS Code, ..... But how to manage the tool preferences of each member in the team? The good news is that with ARCAD extensions each developer can bring his/her preferred tools!
We'll discuss and demonstrate key features now available and what's coming:

ARCAD's integration with VS Code to see the impact of their changes and automate the build.
How Git allows Developers to work synchronously and efficiently with other Developers using tools like SEU or RDi.
And – the most exciting part – how non-IBM i Developers can now contribute directly to IBM i projects without having to know the "unique" details of the IBM i, while at the same time ensuring efficient oversight of their changes.

It's a brave new world. Arcad can help you on the journey!
Register now!
