For CRM 4.0 developer newbies: the Developer Ramp-up Kit [link]
CRM 4.0, Customizations, Developer, Links July 10th, 2008
If the software development experience with Dynamics CRM 4.0 had to be summarized with one word, it would have to be flexibility. Let’s say there’s some type of functionality that Dynamics CRM can’t immediately address from within the application; there’s a good chance that there are development tools ready to make CRM work for your business, not the other way around.
Enter the Developer Ramp-up Kit for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0. It’s a nice collection of videos, labs and other resources to get you up and running with the various tools available in CRM 4.0. To get the most out of the kit you’ll need some familiarity with the following:
- .NET Framework
- Microsoft Visual C#
- Javascript
- Microsoft SQL Server
- General Web development
For those looking to get familiar with Dynamics CRM’s extensibility, this is a one-stop shop for all the tools you need to get started.
