Hello guys, i'm really glad to be here

!
I'm in the need to dive deep into Pivotal. I don't have anyone to explain or support me phisically.
So i figured out this would be the best way, by asking you.
So far, i haven't got anything but the database backups wich include the customization environment, BM and EX.
However, i've only seen the "RDF" extension wich i read is usable to perform a deployment on the Pivotal CRM platform.
Also, seen the .RPT as they have used Crystal Reports before
So i am facing how to develpe and deploy RDF components.
I understand there are few scenarios,
Development Environment
Customization Environment
Deployment Environments
Production Environment
do i need all these set up in my environment or i can start with the Toolkit and eRelationShip?

Also, this is really tied up to the Visual Studio or this Toolkit is enough to develope in?
Im proficient in SQL and C# but this is a real new "framework" for me...
Any help or tip would be _greatly_ appreciated, thank you!
