Content archived for Azure DevOps previous versions

Kathryn Elliott

​In April of this year, we completed a major project to archive older versions of our content.  For several years now, we've supported content for all Azure DevOps versions. These versions included TFS 2013 through Azure DevOps Services. Users viewed the content for their versions through the content version selector. In April, the content version selector changed as shown.  Why do we archive content? There are several reasons why we archive content. What content is archived? What happened to TFS 2013, TFS 2015, and TFS 2017? We moved content for older versions to our archive site. You can access th...

DevOps Dojo – UX/Accessibility

DevOps Dojo

“I took the road less traveled, and that has made all the difference. It always seems impossible until it's done, and that is what motivates me to work on something that hasn't been done before. It wasn’t easy bringing the two worlds of DevOps and accessibility to the same page, but we knew it had to be done. I don't take accessibility for granted mainly because of the life experiences I have had as a person who stutters. Accessibility may vary with perspective; for me email/text is more accessible than a call, but for someone else calling might be more accessible. Thus, my mantra is to develop the product to be...
