Azure Functions: Compiling, Debugging, Intellisense VS2017 - azure

We are looking for a way to do development of Azure functions inside of VS2017. Any Ideas?

The tooling for Visual Studio 2017 is still under development. You can track the current status in this github issue.
UPDATE: The Preview of Visual Studio 2017 Tools for Azure Functions are now available for download. The blog post explains the tools, requirements, and has a link to the download. Note that it only works in VS 15.3 Preview, not in earlier versions.

Personally, I prefer to develop precompiled functions and publish as a web application.
You can get some helpful intellisense for host.json and function.json by using the json schemas http://json.schemastore.org/function & http://json.schemastore.org/host

No Cloud templates on Visual Studio for Mac

As title suggests i cannot see any cloud functions in VS Mac. I have reinstalled many times, clean installs, redone dotnet core 3 and 5. I can see the functions plug in within vs mac.
I do have azure functions in VS Code for Mac
But i cannot see why i cannot get them in Visual Studio Mac - i cannot see how or where these are installed. I have all the other ones, just the cloud category is missing.
This is the very latest version of studio. Stable or Preview.
Any ideas?
thanks
Paul
Only the azure function template is available under cloud extensions; other templates can be found in other panes such as web and console, multi platform, iOS, Android, and so on. In Vistual studio mac, you may even create your own templates. More information can be found HERE.
While we're on the subject of Azure templates, you can learn more about them here Azure - Visual Studio for Mac | Microsoft Docs.

Is it possible to use the ServiceStack templates in Visual Studio 2017 or 2019?

Is it possible to use the ServiceStack templates in Visual Studio 2017 or 2019? I've seen the documentation reference VS Code. I'm able to run the projects in VS 2019. If there is a place ask ServiceStack, I haven't found it yet.
All ServiceStack Project Templates should work in Visual Studio, eventually all .NET Core projects will be upgraded to use .NET Core 3.1 LTS when it's released where you'll need to use VS 2019.
But most of the Single Page App Templates utilizes npm utils to provide web transformations and each SPA Framework has unique formats like Vue's SFC's, React JSX and .svelte templates which are poorly supported in Visual Studio, you'll have a much better development experience using either VS Code or JetBrains Rider with first-class support for these formats and much better Terminal integration to run watched npm utils.
If I needed to use Visual Studio I'd only use it for all back-end C# development whilst using VS Code for all front-end development and running built-in npm utils in its multi terminal window support.
Otherwise for non SPA project templates using Visual Studio should provide a good development experience.
If there is a place ask ServiceStack, I haven't found it yet.
If you're asking if there's a specific place to ask ServiceStack questions, you can use the ServiceStack Customer Forums.

Unable to load migrated Azure functions project in Visual Studio 2017

I have developed an Azure Functions project in Visual Studio 2015 (a project with a .funproj file extension). Now I want to migrate it to Visual Studio 2017 but when I try, VS does not load the project.
Why is the migration failing and how can I complete it manually?
Azure Functions tooling for Visual Studio 2017 is still work in progress. They are expected to be announced during upcoming Build event.
Watch this github issue for status.
UPDATE: The Preview of Visual Studio 2017 Tools for Azure Functions are now available for download. The blog post explains the tools, requirements, and has a link to the download. Note that it only works in VS 15.3 Preview, not in earlier versions.
As far as I know, there's no migration tooling available per se, so you'd have to start from a blank project and then convert your script to static class and function.json to proper bindings.

Deploy WebJobs using Visual Studio 2015

I was following this blog post to deploy my existing console app to web jobs.But, I'm unable to find right-click, "Add > Existing Project as Azure WebJob" option in Visual Studio 2015. I did install the new Azure SDK bits. Just wondering if this future has been deprecated ?
The option is still there. But please do note that this is only supported on regular ASP.NET projects. So if you are using ASP.NET Core, that option is not available at this time.

IPP and Visual Studio 2012

I've been trying to get the .NET Dev Kit and Azure SDK to work with Visual Studio 2012 and am not having much luck. What am I missing?
The Azure SDK installation instructions don't work on VS 2012. When I search for anything Intuit-related from the VS Extension Manager, nothing comes up.
I tried installing from the VS Gallery but then there's no Intuit Anywhere menu in VS as shown in the VS 2010 screen shot. (These instructions are highly suspect, since Intuit has moved away from the "Intuit Anywhere" name. But given that the developer site was overhauled recently I would expect the instructions to be up to date.)
Is there an easy way to get this to work with VS 2012, or am I wasting my time? Am I better off just building everything from scratch? (We have done that in another project, just not with Azure.)
The Plugin for Visual Studio has not been updated for Visual Studio 2012, the last supported version is 2010.
The code that the plugin generates is available as templates and sample code as well.
It includes the Oauth grant and handler pages, as well as the OpenId handlers.

Jarred
