Summary

Getting started with TeamCity is pretty straightforward on any platform, be it Windows, Linux, or OS X. This chapter covered the steps to get a basic installation of the TeamCity server and agent up and running.

This chapter did not cover the various settings and tweaks needed for a production installation of TeamCity, for example, using an external SQL database. There may also be changes to this basic setup due to build requirements. Such aspects will be covered in the upcoming chapters.

In the next chapter, we will get into the meat of this book—setting up CI using the TeamCity instance that we have just set up.
