.NET Builds using Paket, FAKE, & AppVeyor, with Cameron Taggart
Details
Automating your build system is a crucial piece of successfully delivering working software. In this talk, we will explain how you can create simple, clean and fast builds for your .NET applications, using Paket (http://fsprojects.github.io/Paket/) (a .NET dependency manager) and FAKE (http://fsharp.github.io/FAKE/) (a MAKE-like .NET build DSL). We will also show how to run those builds on AppVeyor for your business or open source projects.
