Finally I did it , Connection with modern development !!!
As we all know change is the law of nature everybody is looking at microsoft what they want to do with Dynamics NAV.
Now the new name is Dynamics NAV 365 Business Central and what we developers are sure of that all development will be changed to new modern Visual Studio Code.
Also Dynamics NAV 2018 R2 is going to release in October 2018 so this might be the last version of Dynamics NAV for Indian Version with old memories. Hahaha.😼😼😼😼
So coming to the point :-

This is a extension provide by microsoft with there setup in ModernDev folder. With this extension we can easily customise our standard product without changing the base code of microsoft.
Step 2. Where we can find this extension in product setup.
