Using FUSEE in Visual Studio Code

❌ Outdated

Using FUSEE in Visual Studio Code

Your own PC

• Install .NET Core 3.1 (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/3.1)
• Install Visual Studio Code (https://code.visualstudio.com/)
• Install the C# extension for Visul Studio Code (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.csharp)

dotnet tool install -g Fusee.Tools.CmdLine
dotnet new -i Fusee.Template.dotnet
fusee install

💡 Note: If fusee install throws an error about the Blender installation, you can either direct it by using the -i argument, or you can install the Blender addon manually by using the io_export_fus.zip in the latest release. If you don't have Blender installed just ignore this error, Fusee will run perfectly fine without it. Blender is just used to create/export 3D-models for the use in Fusee.

dotnet tool install -g Fusee.Tools.CmdLine
set PATH=%PATH%;%USERPROFILE%\.dotnet\tools
dotnet new -i Fusee.Template.dotnet

Packaging your FUSEE application to a .fuz-file

In Visual Studio Code press Ctrl+Shift+B select 'Pack Fusee app as fuz file'. You can find the fuz file in your build directory (usualy 'bin/Debug').

Upload the .fuz file to your webspace and link it with a fusee URI scheme handler e.g.: fusee://mywebspace.com/myfuseeapp.fuz.
