Version 0.36.0 of Cake has been released.

A new year, a new release, this marks the first Cake release for 2020, a release packed with several features, improvements and fixes, full details of contents of this release at end of blog post.

As always a huge thanks to our awesome community! This project wouldn't be sustainable without your contributions and feedback❤

A big focus in this release has been in improved .NET Core 3 runtime support and better handling of native dependencies like i.e. SQL Server client.

We're also very happy to welcome Jérémie Desautels as a new Cake core team member! His contributions to the Cake ecosystem have been invaluable, especially his work with Cake.AddinDiscoverer which inventories new addins and makes sure existing ones follow best practices. This ensures a healthier, more robust and high quality experience for you as a Cake user. It also ensures better discoverability as new addins will now automatically generate a pull request to our website to be documented, addins unlisted from NuGet will automatically generate a pull request for removal from the site and a full audit report is published to cake-contrib/Home repo.

Version 0.34.1 of Cake has been released.

This is just a minor release as a hotfix to address an issue breaking scripts when the dynamic C# keyword was used in build scripts. This was a side effect of updating from Roslyn 2.x to 3.x.

Thanks dieterv for reporting! All contributions are appreciated❤.

BTW this is the 100th Cake release! 🎉

Version 0.34.0 of Cake has been released.

First we would like to say a delayed happy birthday to Cake, in May it was five years since the first release of Cake.

It's been a great journey building a truly fully cross platform and cross environment build system, utilizing the power of C# and .NET giving the same experience regardless of running locally, running on build server, in a container, on .NET Framework, .NET Core, Mono etc.

This journey wouldn't have been possible without an amazing community of contributors and users, we're really thankful for your support and we're just amazed with the fact that the runtime has been downloaded over five million times on NuGet, Docker Hub, Chocolatey and Homebrew.

We are no way near the end of the journey and believe it or not there's great progress on version 1.0, you can follow the work on version 1.0 in this pr.

In this version we've several features, improvements and bug fixes, full details below but a few highlights in this release:

Version 0.32.0 of Cake has been released.

This is the first release for 2019, but before we focus on the new, a short retrospect of 2018. In 2018 we had 11 releases of Cake, hundreds of PRs from over fifty individual contributors, hundreds of issues raised and closed, and millions of downloads. All in all, it sums up to an active and healthy community – which we’re very grateful for, thank you!

A trend we saw in 2018 was that more and more tools start to come as .NET Global tools (including Cake itself) and most of these have been added to Cake tool resolution, allowing you with minimal changes run in a pure .NET Core environment.

This release has several improvements and fixes, to note a few, Cake’s Zip archive functionality has been greatly improved, initial support for VS2019 / MSBuild 16 has been added, a complete list of changes can be found below.

Happy New Year!
