CI/CD stands for Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment/Delivery. It automates not only testing but also delivery of your app.
🏗️ CI vs. CD
- CI (Continuous Integration): Build and test every commit automatically.
- CD (Continuous Delivery/Deployment): Automatically push code to production (or staging) once tests pass.
⚡ GitHub Actions Tips
- Workflows: Automate things like build, test, deploy.
- Triggers: Run workflows on push, pull request, schedule, etc.
- Jobs: Each workflow can have multiple jobs (e.g., test, deploy).
