Or just install from the Extensions dialog in Visual Studio.
You can download the daily build from Open VSIX Gallery
Ensure you always have the latest daily build (if you are brave) by installing this extension

To build and debug, run latest version of Visual Studio as Administrator with the "Visual Studio extension development workload" installed. Make EFCorePowerTools the startup project, and ensure your build configuration is Debug, x86 (not AnyCPU).
