Team Foundation

Team Foundation is a collection of collaborative technologies that support a team effort to deliver a product. While the Team Foundation technologies are typically employed by a software team to build a software product, they can also be used on other types of projects.

If you are new to Team Foundation, you may want to begin learning by reading Team Foundation Concepts to get an overview of the architecture, and key features of Team Foundation. For specific steps on performing common tasks, see Team Foundation Walkthroughs.

The remaining content is divided into three areas depending upon the roles for a team: project administrators, project leads, and project members.
