As part of release 13.1, we have added a bit of functionality to Go’s custom command. Accordingly, the task menu item has changed from ‘Custom Command’ to ‘More’.

As shown below, we have simply made it a little easier to get started with a whole bunch of tools related to build and deployment on different platforms. Simply lookup the tool you want to invoke from Go and it is likely we have a starter command for it. We may also show you some related tools for your consideration. Of course, all this is optional, you could choose to author a custom command from scratch as before.

 

Integrations with build and deploy tools
