Azure Pipeline YAML vs Wizard
Why is Microsoft creating a YAML file for code deployment? Should I only use the Wizard for initial build and then export the YAML and use it from there on out?
I think that the YAML would be fine if I could re-import it back into the pipeline to reconstruct the Wizard. I don't know how to add things comfortably to the YAML, so this leads to a lot of typos and then creating a simple pipeline to see the YAML created for a specific task.
When should I use the YAML (and why) and when should I use the Wizard (and why)?

well, basically, if you are doing something adhoc, use the wizard, but for something more static, thats supposed to scale and be manageable use yaml. its like asking: "why do you need scripting languages" or "why do you need infrastructure as code". Sure you can always use GUI. But sometimes gui is far worse
