Summary
This post introduces the ability to install Visual Studio Marketplace Extensions directly to Team Foundation Server "15" RC1. It details a streamlined process for installing both free and paid extensions by browsing the Marketplace from TFS, which then recognizes the TFS environment and allows selection of a team project collection. The process automatically handles downloading, uploading, and installing the extension into TFS. For paid extensions, it also covers the purchase flow, including subscription selection and user assignment.
