We have some JSON configuration files, which we store in our TFS 2015 repo. And, some non-developers want to edit those JSON files, through the TFS web interface. I've been asked to build a custom UI around that editing experience. In short, a form wrapped around a JSON file.
So, is there a way to do this through "TFS web extensions"? Of the scant background and samples I can find, it all related to TFS Work Items. But, I want to build a form for an actual source-controlled file. Can anybody point me in the right direction?
That is possible using the VSTS extensions. This will only be available on premise in one of the updates next year though. The current extension model that you have on premise will fall away in lieu of the new model.
