Visual Studio for Mac lets you create and run builds instantly, while still giving you control over build functionality. For Visual Studio on Windows, see Compile and build in Visual Studio. This topic applies to Visual Studio for Mac. For details on building applications with Azure Pipelines, see Azure Pipelines. For more information about building applications via the command line, see MSBuild. To build applications from the command line without installing Visual Studio for Mac, you can install the latest. The documentation in this section goes into further details of the IDE-based build process. Modify the build workflow and create build activities to perform deeply customized tasks. Employ virtually unlimited cloud-based resources for build processes. Apply automated tests with every build. Automate your build process as part of a continuous integration/ continuous delivery pipeline. Customize most areas of the build system. Run multi-processor builds for all project types. Build projects without installing Visual Studio for Mac. Customize different aspects of the build system. Run multi-processor builds for C# projects. Create builds immediately and test them in a debugger.

On the Mac, you can use any of the following methods to build your application: Visual Studio for Mac, MSBuild command-line tools, or Azure Pipelines. After your application is fully tested, you can compile a release version to deploy to your customers. This executable may then be tested via debugging and different kinds of manual and automated tests to validate code quality. The build process produces an application executable. By building then debugging, you can also find and fix run-time errors such as logic, IO, and divide-by-zero errors.Ī successful build means the source code contains correct syntax and all static references to libraries, assemblies, and other components can resolve. It's important to build your code often to allow you to quickly identify type mismatches, erroneous syntax, misspelled keywords, and other compile-time errors.

Visual Studio for Mac can be used to build applications and create assemblies during the development of your project. Applies to: Visual Studio for Mac Visual Studio
