artifacts/
  installers/
    $(Configuration)/
      *.msi            = Windows installers
      *.deb, *.rpm     = Linux installers
      *.zip, *.tar.gz  = archives versions of installers
  log/
    runningProcesses*.txt = Process list from just before build completed
    runningProcesses*.bak = Process list from two minutes before runningProcesses*.txt files were written
    *.binlog           = Binary logs for a few build phases e.g. site extension build
    **/
      *.log            = Log files for test runs and individual tests
    $(Configuration)/
      *.binlog         = Binary logs for most build phases
  packages/
    $(Configuration)/
      Shipping/        = Packages which are intended for use by customers. These, along with installers, represent the 'product'.
        *.nupkg        = NuGet packages which ship to nuget.org
        *.jar          = Java packages which ship to Maven Central and others
        *.tgz          = NPM packages which ship to npmjs.org
      NonShipping/
        *.nupkg        = NuGet packages for internal use only. Used to hand off bits to Microsoft partner teams. Not intended for use by customers.
  symbols/
    $(Configuration)/
      $(TargetFramework)/
        *.pdb          = Loose symbol files for symbol server publication. Special cases where *.symbols.nupkg packaging is cumbersome.
  VSSetup/
    $(Configuration)/
      *.vsix           = Visual Studio extensions. None currently exist.
