For developers who use Azure Explorer, we understand that the current workflow of connecting resources to a project can be time-consuming because they need to switch between Project View and the Azure Explorer frequently. We also find that developers feel complicated since they need to configure these connection strings manually.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Based on these reasons, we have been making investments to enable this application-centric experience in the toolkit, which can help developers to manage\u00a0 and connect resources in one view and deploy resources to the cloud easily. In addition, we also support the Service Connector to help you build resources connections across all kinds of Azure computed services.
