Microsoft Azure DevOps Engineer: Inspecting and Identifying Code Dependencies

Managing complex software requires efficient code reuse. This often involves leveraging code from various sources – open source libraries, third-party libraries, or your own custom components. The key to effective reuse lies in packages, which need a central location: a package repository.

This course, Microsoft Azure DevOps Engineer: Inspecting and Identifying Code Dependencies, provides a comprehensive understanding of package management within Azure DevOps. You'll gain practical skills to streamline your software development lifecycle.

Here's what you'll learn:

• Identifying Code Dependencies: Discover how to analyze your codebase to pinpoint reusable components and extract them into modular packages.
• Package Types & Feeds: Explore different package types and understand the role of package feeds in organizing and distributing code. A deep dive into Azure Artifacts feeds will be included.
• Packaging with NuGet: Learn to package your own code as a NuGet package, a standard format for .NET libraries.
• Consuming Packages: Understand how to easily consume packages from an Azure Artifacts feed within your projects.
• Automated Publishing in Azure Pipelines: See how to integrate package publishing into your continuous integration (CI) and continuous deployment (CD) pipelines using Azure Pipelines. Automate the process of making your packages readily available.

By the end of this course, you'll be proficient in identifying code dependencies and utilizing Azure Artifacts to host the packages essential for your applications and pipelines, improving efficiency and collaboration within your development teams. Master code dependency management and optimize your software development workflow with Azure DevOps.
