Albacore is a professional quality suite of Rake tasks for building .NET or Mono based systems. It's like MSBuild or NAnt without all the stabby-bracket XML hell! The tasks are built using a test-first approach and all tests are included in the gem. If you're new to Ruby/Rake read the [quick start][2]. Or, browse the [detailed instructions][1] for each task in our wiki. 

Details about goals and releases can be found at [albacorebuild.net](http://albacorebuild.net) and by following [@albacorebuild](https://twitter.com/albacorebuild).

## Installation

Add this line to the Gemfile where you maintain the dependencies for your build:

```ruby
gem "albacore"
```

And then execute

```bat
> bundle
```
    
Or install it yourself:

```bat
> gem install albacore
```

## Usage

Require the Albacore gem at the top of your rakefile and start using the custom tasks. Consult the [quick start][3] or the detailed [task instructions][1] for more information on how to use Albacore tasks in your Rake build.

```ruby
require "albacore"
```
