Thanks Dmitry!
The one thing I wish the template had was the ability to automatically include a Windows build agent (I’m building off of VS 2017). Currently, I’m thrashing about trying to get it set up from what’s written in your blog post on Apr 26, 2017.
I must say, if a person hasn’t any network setup knowledge, it’s quite difficult to figure it all out (I have some, but I’m more of a senior developer, not a network admin).
I’m not sure I can get it set up through Azure using the template, and I might have to just resort to making my own Windows VM that doubles as the build agent (with TeamCity’s built-in db).
Further, in trying to navigate the maze, the costs look frightening (from as little as $20/month to thousands), and the “fear factor” gets quite high over all the manual setup for a developer on the Microsoft tech stack.
I suppose I should raise this in the forum, but that’s just another point of disconnection in trying to “figure it all out”.
