Is there a way to have the same 'preview transform' capability offered by the SlowCheetah NuGet package for the DXC transform files in Visual Studio ?

  • Web.Integration.config
  • Web.PreProduction.config
  • Web.Production.config

I understand that SlowCheetah enable xslt transformation at build, which is not the way it works in DXC. However the Visual Studio UX tool to debug xslt transform is really helpful and I was wondering if someone had a workaround to make it work.

I don't think you need SlowCheetah at all anymore these days, if you modify your .csproj files like this:

    <None Include="Web.integration.config">

      <DependentUpon>Web.config</DependentUpon>
      <IsTransformFile>True</IsTransformFile>
    </None>
Then you can simply right click the file and click preview transform inside visual studio.
