In this chapter, we covered some basic definitions of terms related to Business Central and Visual Studio Code. We followed with an introduction to the 11 Business Central objects types (tables, table extensions, pages, page extensions, page customizations, profiles, reports, codeunits, queries, control add-ins, and XMLports). We introduced table, page, and report creation through review and hands-on use, and began a Business Central application for the programming management of the Radio Show WTDU. Finally, we looked briefly at the tools that we use to integrate with external entities and discussed how different types of backups and documentation are handled in Visual Studio Code. Now that we have covered the basics, we will dive into the detail of the primary object types in the next few chapters.
In the next chapter, we will focus on tables: the foundation of any Business Central system.
