Hi All,
While developing/debugging custom visuals the main tool I use is the developer visual in the PowerBI service, however this requires an internet connection. Is there an equivalent/alternative for local/offline debugging (e.g., with the ability the reload the visual and see console logging, etc.)
Thanks!
Andrew
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @andrjohns,
No - for offline, the alternative would be to package the visual and load into Desktop, but this doesn't provide the debugging options.

Daniel
