Running Func locally--page is woefully inadequate--please fix #122669

To follow the instructions for quick start, I had to install the Azure Function core tools msi and once installed, had to issue from terminal "func start".

Sure I could jump through all your links and I figured this out, but this is a quick start? IMO, please document these simple steps as part of this guide.

Thank you!

Did you run Azure Functions: Install or Update Core Tools... from the command palette as indicated? The VS Code project should already have the commands to start debug from F5.

Hi Glenn

Thank you for your response, I really appreciate helping me sort this out!

Azure Functions: Install or Update Core Tools...

I cannot find that in VSCODE via command pallette search. I assume I should be able to find this installer by hitting F1 then typing in "Azure Functions:"? that is not working for me.....am I doing that wrong?

There is an "azure functions" extension I can install, do you mean that? (cntl + shift + x then search for "Azure functions" + install it)--but i don't think that has the functionality (pun intended) that I need?

Thank you

Yes! The Azure Functions extension is a requirement, and it gives you all of those nice command palette commands for Functions as well as the Azure activity functionality in the sidebar. If you are still having issues when using this extension, please just open another issue. Thanks!
