.NET development in Azure with Visual Studio Team Services

The Discussion

• 

  As a dev who has always deployed manually via FileZilla. This was not easy. There was a lot happening, and many of the things you were doing were very alien to me. Must I be a DevOps person in order to use VSTS?
  
  I was listening to Donovan Brown on a recent .Net Rocks podcast, so I was excited to attempt to build myself a CI/CD with VSTS just to play around.
  
  It turns out, it isn't as "easy as pressing a button" to get a Continuous Deployment Pipeline. There is a whole bunch of things one has to understand and setup.
  
  Where would someone like me start?

  There are a couple options depending on your target.

  Azure DevOps Projects

  Yo Team

  Continuous Delivery Tools for Visual Studio

  docs.Microsoft.com

  We also have templates to get you started when you create a new build.

  What we wanted Jessica to show was a little more advanced scenario.

  The links above will point in the right direction to just get started. 

  Ping me on Twitter @DonovanBrown if you need help.
