This is a great opportunity to get started with VS Code and the IBM i extensions. Many RPG developers have never used VS Code and getting started with the IDE can be frustrating. This lab will introduce the attendees to VS Code and the IBM i development environment.
Attendees will need a laptop and will be provided a login to an IBM i system allowing them to work through some simple tasks. At the end of the Lab, the attendee will have an understanding of the following topics.
