Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "Navigate to the folder in which we created the Vagrantfile file."

A block of code is set as follows:

pool: 
  vmImage: ubuntu-latest 
steps: 
- task: DotNetCoreCLI@2 
  displayName: "Restore" 
  inputs:

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

[  inputs: 
    command: 'test' 
    projects: '**/tests/*.csproj' 
    arguments: '--configuration Release' 
- task: DotNetCoreCLI@2

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y gnupg software-properties-common curl \  

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: "When choosing the Adjusting your PATH environment option, we can leave the default choice proposed by the installer."
