Build and release your applications using VSTS/TFS 2015 Update 2

Team Build in TFS 2013 was awful. You mean I had to learn Windows Workflow/XAML just to work with builds? I also needed Visual Studio to do anything with builds? Yep.

TFS 2015 and VSTS introduce a brand new Build system that rights past wrongs and is cross platform to boot.

In this demo-heavy session, Anthony will cover not only the new Build system but we'll peel back the covers of the new Release Management solution Microsoft has just released in TFS 2015 Update 2.
