In the past, I’ve blogged about using AppVeyor for Continuous Integration (CI), but up to now, I’ve been manually uploading NuGet packages to NuGet.org. In this post – the 10th in the ConTabs series – I explain the steps I took to automate the packaging and deployment of ConTabs to NuGet.org. Or, in other words, how I’m using AppVeyor for my Continuous Deployment.

Update: Getting .NET Standard apps playing nicely on NuGet

In an unexpected turn of events, this post is about the pitfalls I’ve encountered whilst publishing ConTabs to NuGet. My decision to make ConTabs a .NET Standard library has meant this was more complicated than I had anticipated.

Finally, I’ll talk about some unexpected guests that turned up when I tried to consume my new NuGet package.
