Chapter 7. Customizing the TFS Build
In this chapter, we will be looking at the build system in TFS. We will start off by looking at the XAML build system, and then take a look at the new build system that has been released with TFS 2015. We'll cover these topics:
- What is an XAML build template?
- Creating custom activities
- Adding a custom activity to your build activity
- A walkthrough of the new build system
For our XAML build sample, we will be creating a build activity that generates some very basic documentation. We will store our code samples in a Git repository, but will be building a project that resides in TFVC.
