+
+## Make Your Custom ISPF Apps Available in VS Code
+
+If you have custom ISPF panels for your internal processes, you can make their functionality available in VS Code as part of your DevOps modernization.
+
+The following sections outline the steps to take.
+
+### Update Your ISPF Application to Run in Plain TSO
+
+1. Update your ISPF application to accept arguments instead of relying on screen inputs.
+1. Update the application to store its output to a dataset, or print it to the terminal instead of showing the result on an ISPF screen.
+1. Test your updated application by running it in TSO without ISPF and check its output.
+1. Run your updated application through Zowe CLI. Issue the following command: `zowe tso issue command "exec 'PUBLIC.REXX(REPOUT)' 'ARG1 ARG2'"`, where `PUBLIC.REXX(REPOUT)` is your REXX application and `ARG1` `ARG2` are the arguments that are passed to it. The syntax above works both in Windows CMD and PowerShell as well as in Bourne compatible UNIX shells.
+
+### Use the Basic-Report Command in This Extension
+
+1. Update the `REXX_EXEC` constant in [basic-report.js](commands/basic-report.js#L6) to point to your application.
+1. Start the extension by pressing <kbd>F5</kbd>. This opens a new VS Code window with this extension.
+1. In this new VS Code window open the Command Palette by pressing <kbd>F1</kbd>
+1. Type `example.com` in the command palette input box.  
+   A list of commands displays.
+   ![Command Palette](command-palette.png)
+1. Select the `Basic Report on a Dataset` command.
+1. After a short moment an editor with the output of your applications opens.
+
+To try this out with a basic REXX program, you can use the included [basic-report.rexx](commands/basic-report.rexx) sample. A successful output report looks like this:
+
+![Report](report.png)
+
+### Explore the Enhanced-Report
+
+The [basic report](commands/basic-report.js) is only 30 lines long. It is as simple as possible to get started quickly. To complete the extension there is a lot more to do. For example:
+
+- Input validation
+- Error checking
+- Storing previous activity in memory
+- Adding a progress bar
+- Storing the report to a data set and retrieving it from there
+- Adding a VS Code Output channel to diagnose issues
+- Adding a setting for the location of the REXX exec instead of hard coding it in the extension code
+
+All of these enhancements have been added to the [enhanced report](commands/enhanced-report.js) with its corresponding [enhanced-report.rexx](commands/enhanced-report.rexx) REXX exec. This adds a little over 100 lines of code and illustrates many other useful VS Code APIs. It also adds typescript checking via [JS Doc](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/jsdoc-supported-types.html) annotations to help you catch errors while authoring the code rather than at runtime.
+
+### Build the Extension
+
+To build the extension, run these two commands:
+
+```
+# Install development dependencies - typescript, types, and vsce
+npm ci
+# Package the extension
+npm run package
+```
+
+### Next Steps
+
+A few ideas about what you might want to try next:
+
+- Store the last 10 user inputs in memory and let the user choose one (in addition to typing a new one).
+- Submit a job and retrieve its output instead of running a REXX exec.
+- Use the Zowe SDK instead of Zowe CLI (remove run-time dependency).
+- Execute the REXX exec over SSH, or submit a job over FTP if you do not have Zowe CLI available.
+- Copy the REXX exec to the mainframe before a command runs (in case the REXX does not exist) - to self-deploy the extension.
