Allowed to build own editor and only use XDK build service?

Hi All,

I really like XDK's ability to test and build apps for me using their cloud-based build servers.

However, I'm not crazy about the XDK IDE, so I've resorted to using Visual Studio as my editor and simply using XDK to build my apps. I have however started a Visual Studio extension which allows me to push my project to the XDK build servers and build my app for me.

Is this allowed? I.e. Write my own Visual Studio extension to push the files to the XDK servers? I dont want to go through all the trouble of finishing my extension and then it is not allowed.

Thank you.

You are more than welcome to use Visual Studio for your editor, however, attempting to reverse engineer our API's is a violation of our TOS. So just stick with VS, then use the XDK to do the upload/build :)
