VS vNext: News on vNext of TFS and VS
This week was rich in announcement both on the next version of Windows and the next versions of Visual Studio and Team Foundation Server. Here is a short summary of what was said on our favorite development tools:
Cette semaine a été riche en nouvelle tant au niveau de la prochaine version de Windows que des futurs versions de Visual Studio et Team Foundation Server. Voici un petit récapitulatif des annonces faites pour nos outils de développement préférés :
- A preview of Team Foundation Server sur Windows Azure is available. You need a invitation code to subscribe so, if you’re interested, follow the blog of Brian Harry who will certainly propose some more code in the future Here’s the URL of the service: http://tfspreview.com.
- Visual Studio 11 Developer preview and Team Foundation Server 11 Developer preview are available. I’ll come back on those in future posts. Meanwhile you can download them here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/fr-fr/vstudio/hh127353
- If you do not want to mess (or lose time ) with the install of those previews, Brian Keller published a virtual machine ready to use Here’s the link: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/briankel/archive/2011/09/16/visual-studio-11-application-lifecycle-management-virtual-machine-and-hands-on-labs-demo-scripts.aspx
That’s all for now. I’m going back to my VMs installation to prepare my next posts on TFS 11 and VS 11 installation experience and their new features
