Visual Studio Online Extensibility and Marketplace
Aug 26, 2015Will Smythe
Summary
This post announces the launch of Extensions and the upcoming Marketplace for Visual Studio Online. Extensions enable publishers to create first-class, integrated experiences within VSO by contributing to UI elements such as context menus, toolbar actions, and custom user experiences within account, collection, or project hubs. The Marketplace, launching in the fall, will allow customers to discover and acquire these extensions, evolving from the current Visual Studio Gallery and supporting IDE extensions, VSO/TFS extensions, and third-party integrations. Initial support will be for VSO, with TFS support planned for a 2015 Update. The Marketplace will also introduce commerce capabilities for publishers.
