Version 0.16.1 of Cake has been released.

Following the release of Cake v0.16.0 last week, mholo65 identified an issue with debugging in Visual Studio Code. In addition, we also noticed that we were missing some properties in the generated assemblies.

As a result, v0.16.1 of Cake is now available.

Please let us know if you run into any issues with this latest release.

Full details of everything that was included in this release can be seen below.

Yeoman users rejoice! You can now bootstrap your project for Cake with Yeoman and the new generator-cake generator.

Version 0.16.0 of Cake has been released, and it's a big release!

Not only are we supporting the full .NET framework (v4.5), but from this version we will also support running Cake on platforms capable of running .NET Core (netstandard1.6).

For this to work, you will have to install the Cake.CoreCLR package instead of the normal Cake package. A blog post describing this more in detail will be published soon.

Please let us know if you run into any issues with this latest release.

As some of you may know, we recently opened an issue on GitHub to discuss the problem of Cake addins becoming stale. This blog post aims to recap the discussion that was had within that issue, as well as the plan going forward.

The first thing that I want to re-iterate is that the Cake Team are not attempting to throttle or take over the development of Cake addins/modules in anyway. We love the fact that there is a thriving Community behind Cake, and we want to encourage that. However, we do have a responsibility to the wider Cake Community and we want to ensure that any addins and modules that are created, can continue to be maintained, should the original developer no longer be in a position to maintain it.

This the first in a series of blog posts which will attempt to explain how Cake uses a number of different online services in order to develop, build, and deploy Cake.

MyGet is a hosted package server that allows hosting of the following package types:

In addition MyGet also offers a build service to allow for the execution of build scripts.
