Delete a project in Visual Studio Online Portal

Microsoft announces Visual Studio Online general available this week. Visual Studio Online (aka VS Online) was named TFS Online for preview for quite a long time. Previously if you create test projects for practice, you might find it’s hard to discover how to delete projects. You can do that in either TFS Online Portal or Visual Studio client,  the only support tool is tfsdeleteproject.exe, which can only be found on a machine with Virtual Studio installed.
