NAV TechDays 2019 – Development Methodologies for the future – The Menu

NAVTechDays is already over for a while .. and yes, I already blogged about it.  But I recently had to refer to a part of my session on “Development Methodologies”, and I noticed that someone named “Marcus Nordlund” actually put quite some time to completely “menutize” the video in the comment section of the video :-).

  1. This is an enormously helpful resource, and thank you to everyone who went to the trouble to prepare it in this form. Had I been there, I would have raised my hand and asked this question: Can you explain how one would achieve the “Table.Method” syntax, where Method is an external function in a code unit? I am having trouble understanding how the code unit variable reference gets compressed out of that notation.
    Thanks again!
