What is Azure DevOps?

Azure DevOps supports a collaborative culture and set of processes that bring together developers, project managers, and contributors to develop software. It allows organizations to create and improve products at a faster pace than they can with traditional software development approaches.

Azure DevOps provides integrated features that you can access through your web browser or IDE client. You can use all the services included with Azure DevOps, or choose just what you need to complement your existing workflows.
