Nant Training



ABOUT


NAnt is an open-source build automation tool designed for .NET projects, similar to Apache Ant for Java. Our NAnt training program is tailored to help developers and DevOps professionals understand the fundamental concepts of building, automating, and managing .NET projects using NAnt. In this course, you’ll learn how to write and configure NAnt build scripts, integrate with version control systems, and automate complex build tasks. Whether you are new to .NET development or looking to enhance your DevOps automation skills, our hands-on training will equip you with the practical knowledge needed to streamline the build and deployment processes in your .NET environment.



Nant works well as an automated build tool. It supports compiling C#, Visual Basic .NET, C++, and J# files. It can compile these files against the .NET Framework platform [v1.x, V2.0 (Beta 1)] and Mono.
