MSBuild: What is it, and when do I need it?
I`ve never used MSBuild and have no idea what is the purpose of MSBuild. It would be nice if anyone describe briefly that in what kind of situation people use MSBuild.
Basically MsBuild is for building your project/solution. You can use msbuild commandline prompt to build your project rather than right click and build. MsBuild is very useful when it comes to automated build servers where you build projects once somebody checkin any new code.
Another advantage of msbuild is, it’s capable to build your project without having VS IDE. You don’t need VS IDE to build your project in automated build servers.
Below are few sites that provide good information for you.
