Tired of long build process that you can do nothing about? With this Visual Studio plugin you can slack off a little and get notification when the build is done!

Project came to live to check how to develop plugins for Visual Studio. Now I know that i don't like it, but this thing is nice and handy sometimes.

Start the solution build via Tools -> Build Solution and Notify (or just hit CTRL + F6). The notification with the build status will be send after build completion. (Builds started in a different way do not trigger notifications by design.)

Notification channel configuration can be done via Tools -> Options -> Build Notify.

Developed in Visual Studio 2017.

Tested in:

• Visual Studio 2017,
• Visual Studio 2019.

• MessageBox (mainly for testing purposes),
• Pushbullet pushes

(And I don't know what else could be useful. Mail? SMS? Azure Notification Hub pushes?)
