In Visual Studio, open
rhino.inside-revit\src\RhinoInside.Revit.sln. -
Set the Solution Configuration drop-down to the Debug <revit_version>, with Revit version you have installed or want to test. This will properly link the correct Revit API libraries to the project.

The project is configured to copy .addin file as well as output files to the folder

folder in order to make Revit load this add-in next time it runs.
In order to uninstall it you can use Visual Studio Build > Clean Solution command
or just navigate to the folder %APPDATA%\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\<revit_version>
and remove the file RhinoInside.Revit.addin and the folder RhinoInside.Revit.
