# PCF Helper

You can run commands separately or run `pcf-helper-deploy` to upgrade, build, and import with just one command.

## Requirements

This tool requires the following:

* `pac` cli installed on your machine.
* `dotnet` cli or Visual Studio installed on your machine.

## Instructions

1. In your project, run `npm install --save @tywalk/pcf-helper`. Or, install globally `npm install --save --global @tywalk/pcf-helper`.
2. In your project's `package.json` file, add commands as npm scripts:

```json
