VSO is a cloud-based development platform provided by Microsoft for software developers.

In addition, VS online provides one months and 60 minutes of online compilation time (enough to eat it?). )。 Okay, nonsense, don't say much, teach us how to use:
1. Click New to create a project after landing VSOs
2. In the pop-up window, fill in the project information. Process template Select VS, version control versioning can choose the hard TFS version control, you can also choose Git. 3. Add your good friends in the members of the member click on the back of the Manage, you can pop up a good base friend Management page, click Add, and then enter his mailbox, agreed after the collaboration can be completed. 4. Add Workspace click Open in Visual Studio on the right to launch VS2013. Switch to Team Explorer view to add a workspace that is called a workspace, which is the corresponding local folder to the Cloud folder. 5. Upload/download code point "source code Manager" to open the version management view, these operations are more consistent with svn,git, such as "Check out for editing" is to add files to version control, "Check in Pending Changes" is the upload code/sync changes to the cloud, "get the latest version" is the download. 6. The most powerful feature of the cloud-compiled Vsol is this, you can click "Generate" then "new Build Definition", "trigger" can let you specify when to compile, every day? Weekly? Or do you upload code every time? All can be satisfied, the "Process" tab can set you how to compile the program. You can tell the cloud how to compile your program by modifying the XAML-formatted build process template. To build the configuration and project, you can specify your compilation configuration and the SLn solution file to be compiled, which is very simple and is selected directly from the list. After you save the build definition, double-click it. Click "Make New Build queue" Select the definition you just created, click "Queue", Microsoft's server will start to help you compile the project! Because the free compilation time quota is not much, here I do not demonstrate. That's it! Microsoft's new pit money technique!
