Project Description
Instant Feature Builder is a personal project I built to see if I could make a drag/drop experience for Visual Studio that built simple (non-modeling/non-menu-exposing) Feature Extensions that would run on VS Pro (and above) and target VS Pro (and above).

If you've ever wanted to package a project/solution/item template with documentation and links to related websites, you've found the right tool: The Instant Feature Builder.
Add document files, text files containing URLs, project/item templates and build... out the other end comes a VSIX that delivers your templates and documents within Visual Studio.

Note: You must install the Visual Studio SDK to build Feature Extensions. The VSSDK is not required for end-users, just authors.

Update: Current Version is 2.0 with a bug fix uploaded on 6-Jul-2011
