any application on any platform.\u00a0 For several years now, we\u2019ve had a concerted effort to build a <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/java.visualstudio.com\/\"><span style=\"color: #0563c1;font-family: Calibri\">great solution for Java developers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\"> with an Eclipse plugin, a cross platform command line, an IntelliJ plugin, a cross platform build agent and so much more.\u00a0 We\u2019ve also been working hard to integrate popular Java tools like Maven, JUnit test results importing, JaCoCo and Cobertura, SonarQube and the list goes on.<\/span>\n<span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">With the recent introduction of our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/marketplace.visualstudio.com\/#VSTS\"><span style=\"color: #0563c1;font-family: Calibri\">Visual Studio Marketplace<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\"> we are reemphasizing how open and extensible VSTS is and how it can be a great solution for every developer by integrating it with your favorite tools.\u00a0 At the same time, I have to admit Java and Microsoft aren\u2019t words that you\u2019ve seen lovingly together in the same sentence in the past.<\/span>\n<span style=\"font-family: Calibri\">To create more awareness and foster ever better integrations between VSTS and your favorite Java tools, we\u2019re launching a <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/gotl.ink\/ZB5HI\"><span style=\"color: #0563c1;font-family: Calibri\">Java Tools Challenge<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\"> to encourage you to try it out and, maybe win some prizes in the process.\u00a0 We are awarding over $80,000 in cash and prizes for doing cool stuff with VS Team Services and Java.\u00a0 Check out the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/gotl.ink\/ZB5HI\"><span style=\"color: #0563c1;font-family: Calibri\">Java Tools Challenge<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Calibri\"> for details.\u00a0 I\u2019d love to see you publish an extension in the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/marketplace.visualstudio.com\/#VSTS\"><span style=\"color: #0563c1;font-family: Calibri\">marketplace<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family:
