Is there any way to invoke PowerQuery/M outside of Excel or PowerBI?
<p>Our BI team is really growing to like the <a href="https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Introduction-to-Microsoft-Power-Query-for-Excel-6E92E2F4-2079-4E1F-BAD5-89F6269CD605?ui=en-US&amp;rs=en-US&amp;ad=US" rel="noreferrer">Power Query ETL tool</a> used within Excel and Power BI. The functional language <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt211003.aspx" rel="noreferrer">M/PowerQuery</a> has great utility and it would be nice to be able to utilize outside of the context of PowerBI.</p>

<p>Is there or are there plans for exposing "M" as a stand-alone module, callable form the likes of c# or PowerShell?</p>
