## About

The Azure DevOps Demo Generator can create projects in your Azure DevOps organization, prepopulated with template-based content including source code, work items, iterations, service endpoints, build and release definitions, and more!

The original purpose of this system is to simplify working with the [Azure DevOps hands-on-labs](https://www.azuredevopslabs.com), demos and other education material. But it can also be used to drive your ownAzure DevOps automation utilities, provision your own custom templates, or as a reference for using the [Azure DevOps REST APIs](https://docs.microsoft.com/rest/api/azure/devops/).

## Getting Started

The Azure DevOps Demo Generator is a hosted service that you can [access directly](https://azuredevopsdemogenerator.azurewebsites.net/) to create template-based projects, via [API](./docs/Azure-DevOps-Demo-Generator-REST-API-Reference.md) or as a side effect of the related [Azure DevOps hands-on-labs](https://www.azuredevopslabs.com).
