I’ve been employed @ Delegate A/S for about a year. In this short period I have created some tools for our CRM developers/consultants in order to make working with Microsoft Dynamics CRM more smoothly. One of these tools is DAXIF# which is defined as A set of tools that in combination with other MS tools make it easier to work with CRM/xRM on a daily basis (also for developers who are not familiar with the platform)
The interface is through F# script files that can be executed from a command prompt or directly from Visual Studio (the best IDE for F# scripts):
The main reason to use F# to create this set of tools is as usual the same sales speech we use to give again and again and again: Error free projects with smaller code base, where there is a need to use one programming language (no. Bat files or PowerShell, …). Where big data, external data sources, parallelism, concurrency, asynchronous processor are trivial to use.:
One of the things I learned from this project was that I actually could make F# scripted and self documented Unit Test that can be executed without having to build the final .DLL:
DAXIF# is proprietary so you will need a license to use it. We don’t provide licenses to other CRM Partner/competitors
Keep updated for the upcoming website and NuGet package.
