Did you know… How to build just the startup project and any dependencies? - #325

Under Tools – Options – Projects and Solutions – Build and Run, there’s the Only build startup projects and dependencies on Run.

In the case you have a very, very large solution, and you want to build without rebuilding the entire world, you can enable this option (it is disabled by default in the General Development Settings), and hopefully save you some time.

  Oh Yeah!!! Loads faster. (My slow building unit test projects in particular now don't build when I just want to run) Thanks for that.
