**** This will be presented in the format of a hands-on lab - Follow the steps below to configure your machine if you plan on following along! ****

Join us for our February event sponsored and hosted by ILM Professional Service (http://ilmservice.com) in Edina. This is a FREE event and a great opportunity for networking and the latest insights in mobile development.

Continuous Integration using Jenkins and Xamarin

In one hour, learn how to setup a Jenkins server to do CI (continuous integration). This will be a lab-style activity, meaning you should bring your laptop and be ready to follow along – learn by doing! We’ll setup Jenkins so that it triggers automatic builds of a “Hello, World!” Xamarin app from both Git commits and a daily timer; Jenkins will keep each build as an artifact for later retrieval.

Presented by Kyle Estes

Kyle Estes is the Lead Data Architect for Polaris Industries where he works on the Ride Command team on mapping. He architected the CI build process and scripts that Polaris currently uses for its production Ride Command mobile apps on Android and iOS.

About the Group
