This give me a great start on Azure. Before watching this video I had no knowledge of Azure. Thanks a lot.😊

Well... coming from another language and seeing this just blows my mind. There are least a couple of months of lerning and practicing to get a feeling for Azure DevOps.

Nice video...

When running the pipeline for the first time, approx 38:30 i am getting "No hosted parallelism has been purchased or granted." I assume this is now expected? ...as MS has moved the goalposts! I have filled in their form (address given in the error message) and will continue when they fix it. Great video by the way i am now a subscriber. Your videos are amongst the best i have seen.

Very nice and informative video for actual CI/CD implementation using Azure DevOps. If you are not new to software development, then you can directly head over to 35:45 for actual demonstration of Azure pipelines.

First of all, I would like to thank you. Secondly, I'm was looking for a video tutorial about CI/CD and I found it, the first time was so lazy to watch your video, but when I started I can say you are an amazing man, a good example of CI/CD.
Thank you for share your knowledge with us.
