Single Pipeline

The Problem
Users want to build, package, test, and deploy their software with a single, automated pipeline.

Goals
• Integrate the build and release areas of Azure
• DevOps into a single pipeline experience
• Support configuration as code
• Preserve support for complex scenarios while simplifying the workflow for most users

My Role
I worked with two other designers (who were new to the team) and two researchers for over 9 months.

Main Takeaways
• Simpler isn’t always better
• Design for scale and performance
• Don’t over-index for features users haven’t adopted yet
