I have use psake a few times, and I wanted to see what I extract to be more productive. With the rate at which I spin off OSS and side projects, I need something that just works out of the box and is fast to set up. Borne of this need, I created Toji, and it is available as a NuGet package.

I must have my build set up with compiling, testing, packaging, and deployment. I have some xunit, nunit, nuget, msbuild helpers in the project to get projects up quickly. The lack of a xunit NuGet package, with test runner, is unfortunate as I can’t just use a script to quickly find the package.

To really give you a feel for what Toji does, here is a video showing off a little.
