Big Picture

Description

Big Picture is a read-only analysis tool for Dataverse developers. It maps the relationships between JavaScript web resources, model-driven app forms, and Power Pages assets in a single solution — giving you the "big picture" of your frontend code without having to open dozens of browser tabs.

JS Web Resources tab:
- File dependency flowchart — which JS files depend on which others
- Call tree — full function call chains from every form event handler
- Form events — all registered handlers (form-XML and code-registered)
- Event trace — Mermaid sequence diagram for a specific handler's execution path
- Summary — aggregate stats, orphan files, and unreachable functions across the solution
- All Functions — sortable table of every parsed function with drilldown detail

Power Pages tab:
- Inventory dashboard — all assets with type, origin, and reference counts
- Entity usage — every Power Pages asset referencing a given entity
- Template include graph — full extends/include hierarchy for web templates
- Dependencies — assets that reference a selected template, snippet, or JS file
- Snippet cross-reference — grouped usage and co-referenced snippets
- Web file references — templates and pages that load a selected JS file
- JS call graph — parsed function call relationships inside a JS web file
- Form script analysis — startup scripts and inline references for basic forms

Requires Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime (ships with Edge / Windows 11).
