1] Create nuspec file next to .csproj file in GitHub (same name)
2] Enable NuGet packaging
AppVeyor -> settings- > Build -> MsBuild -> Automatic packaging -> check 'Package NuGet projects'
3] Add NuGet Api key
AppVeyor -> settings -> deployment -> deployment provider -> select NuGet -> Api Key -> fill in your NuGet api key
Optional: secure api key with https://ci.appveyor.com/tools/encrypt
