How to get Team Build 2010 to build and Package Windows 8 Modern (Metro) Applications:
- Install Windows Server 2012, just hit MSDN (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/hh708764.aspx)
- Install and configure Team Build 2010 (with SP1 of cource).
- Install Visual Studio 2012 on the machine.
- Done! (Oh and this works for other Visual Studio 2012 projects)
When you look at the build drop location, under the individual published Application folder you will see an AppPackages:
- AppXUpload = Combined archive of your application for publishing to the AppStore
- Folder with the {name of the Application}_{Version Number}_{Platform}_Test
- To side load it, run the Add-AppDevPackage on your target machine
- Make sure to have Powershell scripting set so you can execute (I cheated and used Unrestricted) http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee176961.aspx
- If not already on that machine, you will be prompted for a Windows 8 Developer License (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh974578.aspx)
