๐Ÿš€ New blog! A long-lived dream of many Bicep users is to extend Bicep beyond Azure by connecting it to other services. With the experimental Bicep local-deploy feature that dream is becoming a reality!

I've wanted a way to use Bicep for Azure DevOps since the first extension, great stuff!

I've seen companies do much of project onboarding in Azure DevOps with scripted config for:
* Repos
* Permissions/roles
* Security settings
* Agent pools
* Service connections
* etc

Automating overall setup ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ

bARGE now has full #KQL syntax highlighting, intellisense for hovering and completions with documentation and links.

New buttons to run queries from the editor title menu (circled in image).

Using #Azure #ResourceGraph Explorer? Try bARGE in #VSCode!

Go for it, full permissions to steal ideas! Built-in KQL syntax highlighting and intellisense is on the list for bARGE, trickier since it's not the full supported Kusto language though with ARG only having subset.

It also adapts to layouts and theme, so try it out and let me know what you think.

It's open source and feature requests are happily accepted! ๐Ÿฅณ

It has everything that ARG explorer in Azure Portal has and more:

* Select text in a KQL file and run it directly
* Switch account and scope
* Compare values from multiple rows
* Copy as formatted or compressed
* Sort, order and navigate results without re-running your queries

Have you ever wanted to run your #KQL queries for #Azure Resource Graph from Visual Studio Code, but missed the functionality of the Azure Portal?

I did, so I built a #VSCode extension called bARGE, a boosted Azure Resource Graph Explorer. ๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ
