Introduction
In this module, you'll learn how to create and configure build and release pipelines with Azure DevOps. First, we'll start with the definition of CI/CD, terms which you often hear about in combination with automated builds and releases.
After that we'll dive into Build Agents and Agent Pools. Build agents are small executables that run on a server to build your application, run tests on it, and deploy the application.
Pipelines in Azure DevOps can be configured with YAML files. These text files contain all the different steps the build process has to follow and execute. You can use this in your build pipeline. You'll learn how to set up a build pipeline by using different PowerShell scripts.
Finally we'll end with an overview on release pipelines that can be used to automatically deploy your applications.
