When deploying .NET applications to production, the difference between a development build and a properly configured production build can be significant. MSBuild provides numerous properties that allow you to optimize your builds for performance, security, and reliability. This article explores essential MSBuild properties for production builds, with particular focus on configuration for CI servers like Continua CI.

A brief look at system-defined Continua CI server properties - old and new.

Version 1.9.2 of Continua CI has been released. This post is a reminder of the new functionally in this version for exporting project configurations to a file (which can then be imported back into Continua CI), the ability to requeue failed stages, and improvements to build cleanup settings to allow each type of build by-product to have a different shelf life.

This new beta release includes functionally for exporting project configurations to a file (which can then be imported back into Continua CI), the ability to requeue failed stages, and improvements to build cleanup settings to allow each type of build by-product to have a different shelf life.

This post explores the options currently available in Continua CI for running daily builds.

Today we released version 1.9 of Continua CI. Here's a summary of the main new features.

I'm not usually one for publishing roadmaps, mostly because I don't like to promise something and not deliver. That said, we've had a few people ask recently what is happening with Continua CI. This post outlines our plans for the rest of 2018 and into the future.

New archiving functionality added to the workspace and repository rules in Continua CI

SSL standards are changing, and older SSL/TSL protocols are slowly being deprecated, or even turned off by some services. This post shows how to enable TLS 1.2 support in Continua CI.

In this post, I'm going to look at how to structure a FinalBuilder project so that it will run on your dev machine, or on your Continua CI Server without modification. This allows the best of both worlds, develop and debug your build process on your development machine, and then later run it on your CI server.
