This blog post is part of the Beginner\u2019s Guide series<\/a> with the goal to get you productive fast.<\/em><\/p>\n

Once you\u2019ve created your account, you need to create a project. A project is where you store all your source code, as well as tasks and builds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\n Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 2.0<\/b> (default) is built for teams practicing the Scrum methodology, and want to use the Scrum terms, such as \u201cProduct Backlog Item.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n MSF for Agile Software Development 6.0<\/b> supports iterative and incremental software development. MSF for Agile can also be used to implement Scrum, however it is adaptive for more general use.\n <\/p>\n

\n MSF for CMMI Process Improvement 6.0<\/b> supports an approach whose goal is to help organizations improve their performance. Development with CMMI emphasizes traceability and auditability.\n <\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
