Similar to the Deneb Custom Visual. It'd be great to have an integrated PBIR (Power BI Report Format) code editor.



Where you could open the PBIR editor pane inside Power BI desktop, right next to your report canvas. Then you would see live updates if you edited the code, or made a change from the format pane. Each would update the other in real time.



Additionally, if you selected a visual, or an element of the visual, the code editor would automatically scroll/filter to the section of the code related to what you selected on the report canvas. Making it super easy to make changes to small amounts of code for PBIR.

I like this idea but would prefer a VSCode integration and a 'refresh' option in Desktop that allowed for 'live-ish' updates from the directory (rather than having to close/re-open).
