We've already got the option to create an SQL project for Fabric warehouse, but wouldn't it be good if you were able to manage and develop your whole Fabric solution in a Visual Studio solution with appropriate projects?
My dream (bear in mind, I'm coming at this from a data engineer point of view) would be a single Visual Studio solution which I could have individual projects for data factory pipelines, warehouses, lakehouses, notebooks, eventhouses, semantic models and even PowerBI visuals. Then I could use CI/CD pipelines to deploy it all (well, I can dream can't I?)
This would really help with source control and deployment since currently we've got a mismash of deploying different artifacts using different methods, its a mess. Let us just be able to deploy 'professionally' using tools like Azure DevOps that we've been using for everything else?
It's obviously quite a bit of a thing to change/implement, but I think it would really help unify development for teams using familiar existing tools and not have to work on different things in different places (e.g. web portal, VS code, etc...). At the moment I'm constantly flicking between the web portal, VS code (when the darn Fabric extension works that is!) and various different deployment tools.
