Awesome 🎉 thank you Jimmy
Please more about app center
And if you can start a playlist about azure DevOps this will be appreciated ❤

I love you with this video ❤. I was about to migrate to github actions, and your video helps a lot !

Please also do the distribute and analytic migration guide!

[CEGA_]

Thank you for this tutorial! This tutorial will help us to have a seamless migration to azure pipeline. Can you do a series of tutorials on distribution to stores? Google play, app store, intune. It will also be a big help to us if you will cover that too 😊. Thank you!

I do not see "Import from Pipeline" when I click the More Actions. I only see New Folder or Manage Security.

Great video. Can you do please a tutorial E2E testing of one of your Maui apps?

Don't know why, but the save button on the pupeline is greyed out and I cannot save, navigating away will delete everything. I've tried talking to DevOps but they only suggested working with YAML, but this option exposes all the passwords and keys to be committed.

Distribute is where the challenge is.. any guide/alternative on that?

So sad to see Xamarin Test Cloud go as well, as that was a product with lots of potential. Was even invited by the Xamarin team in an online session to discuss new features. Was hoping to see it live forth as an Azure service but it seems to fully retire.

What I do find interesting is that the migration guide mentions a different product (BrowserStack) than that the MAUI product (Appium) seems to use for UI Testing. Can you elaborate on that a bit?

Hi, in my job we already move to pipeline, but we continue to use appcenter for diagnostics. Do you have any idea of that we can do ?

What if our company does not use Azure and uses BitBucket? What the alternatives for Xamarin for CI/CD?

[DanRasmussen]

What is I want to create the Pipeline from scratch?
