Is it possible to run and debug this project locally using Visual Studio Community Edition? #34

Open dd45 opened 8 years ago

dd45 commented 8 years ago

In the documentation I keep reading "Visual Studio 2015". Is it possible to run this on a freely available edition of Visual studio such as the Community Edition?

I suspect that there may be some limitations (e.g. Node debug IDE integration). Would be good to clarify this in the README document.

Thanks!

Anything ever determined on the Community edition? I followed the instructions and simply get a "Magic Mirror UWP App" goldish window with a square in the middle of it. Never see it actually utilize the hosted web app from the url entered.

EDIT

Had to deviate a little from the instructions in the read.me...when I simply change the startpage from the gui it left and old value in the config in the uap:Rule section. Once, I manually changed it the app started up...happened to watch a Microsoft presentation earlier on YouTube or would never of known about the rules section.
