Building workspace vs uploading cartridges in eclipse in code deployment over sandbox - salesforce

I am deploying a code over sandbox from eclipse, I'm new to salesforce development.
what is the diff between building workspace and uploading cartridges in eclipse.
I appreciate all the help that i can get, thanks in advance

There are no "cartidges" in Salesforce documentation. Are you sure you're developing salesforce code? Maybe you're working on some Java integration? Or maybe you mean packages? zip files with package.xml and source code?
And Eclipse development model is outdated now, all the cool kids moved on to sfdx + visual studio code. What you're doing still works (it uses "metadata api") but you're consciously using old tools, depriving yourself from newer, faster toys. You can read more about metadata api style of deployments in https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_meta.meta/api_meta/meta_intro.htm
Now... If you ask about "why do I bother with doing deployments if in sandbox I can just edit the class/trigger directly and save"... well - you can't in production. You can't just go and edit code straight on production, even in the setup the button simply isn't there. It has to be a deployable package, it has to run unit tests during deploy (they need to pass, the code coverage has to be at least 75%). So you make a package when you're really ready to go to prod

Google scripts with cloud external editor on mobile

I’m trying to figure out how to code Google App scripts from a mobile device and I’ve narrowed in on some solutions, but have not quite found one that works.
The first step is to find a way to code app scripts from an online editor. I already do online coding through the iOS app Juno, which has an editor for Jupyter notebooks stored in the cloud on CoCalc.
Unfortunately, Jupyter notebooks do not natively code App scripts Java-like programming. So, i’d have to figure out how to deploy scripts from a python environment.
Google does have documentation on deploying app scripts with python, but require Clasp and other installs, which I’ve yet to figure out how to install in a Jupyter notebook.
I wish I could set up a cloud doc to share here, but I don’t have even the beginning elements of attempt yet. So, I hope this question is enough for someone to give me direction.
Thanks so much.

Github SQL Server installation

I am new to github I understand it is aversion control repository for collaborative software development. I wish to however explore that can we also install software such as SQL Server or java in github repository so that it provides a complete platform. Actually I have developed a software tool that uses HTML5 D3 and SQL Server I want it to upload to a Github repository so that other can see a live demo. I'm not sure how to do this - please comment
Github will only host the source code itself and static html pages. Nothing is actually executed there. Basically a folder on a computer. Passive. You would need to use a cloud platform like gcp or aws to do what you are describing.

Jenkins for C# Projects and Artefacts

after my last question about artefacts in an C# project, i´am using Nuget for my DLL´s, but with no "Snapshot" like system i use in Maven.
Are there any projects or tutorials about building an Build Pipeline with Jenkins as the Buildsystem and deploying Artefacts to an Artefact Server?
In our Java projects, i use Jenkins and Sonatype Nexus. Now i think i need Jenkins with msbuild and some kind of nuget server (atm it is just an file storage). Maybe, someone has done it already. I dont want to host an extra Team Foundation Server if i can avoid it.
Regards
Please go through this Stackoverflow thread setting-up-continuous-integration-and-continuous-deployment-for-microsoft-applications.
They also have the Java stack established with Jenkins and Nexus and wants to reuse the same tools to setup the CI/CD process for their Microsoft.Net applications.

How to Sync The Silverlight and Web Projects

In my Silverlight solution I have a edsv project and a edsv.web project. If I make edsv the startup project it works ok. If I make edsv.web the startup project, it executes a much earlier version of the code.
The setup project need to use the .web project, right? So my install kit reflects the wrong code. How do I get the projects in sync?
I got the solution in another forum, please see http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/silverlight/en-US/8293acb7-a2dc-4c04-92f7-150830cc355a/how-to-sync-the-silverlight-and-web-project

Are there any TFS plugins available for the Force.com IDE?

Are there any TFS plugins available for the Force.com IDE? We are trying to centralise our CRM, and we would like to have TFS integration in Force.com IDE.
Which plugins are available? Which have you found most useful.
Does anyone know about this, which plugins are available?
We need this as we already have a historical repository in TFS with respect to the existing application framework. We are likely to add couple of more Force.com utilities to the framework. Hence it would be more mangeable to have a single repository rather having it on multiple ends. Any Idea will be appreciated
Well, force.com IDE is essentially a customized Eclipse so a TFS plugin for eclipse should in theory work, check here.
Though, I am not certain why you need it, SF sandbox itself in combination with Force.com IDE is a form of merge-based Apex source repository.
Just to clarify things first. The Force.com IDE is built as a plugin for the eclipse editor. There are many many other plugins for eclipse. What you want is http://www.teamprise.com/index.html - this however is not free. If you have an MSDN account it should be available to you already.
I use eclipse with the Force.com plugin and the subclipse (subversion) plugin side by side and it works quite well. So I'd assume with a bit of tinkering you can get teamprise working alongside the force.com plugin.
