This not only made the pipeline more difficult to understand but also makes the build time very long and forces you to rerun the full build if one specific step fails.| The art of simplicity
I think everyone has encountered the frustrating scenario where your .NET solution builds perfectly on your local machine but mysteriously fails in Azure Pipelines.
