CI/CD Pipeline Setup Guide

CI/CD Concepts

CI (Continuous Integration) frequently integrates code changes. CD (Continuous Delivery/Deployment) automates delivery to production.

GitHub Actions Example

name: CI
on: [push, pull_request]
jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - run: npm ci
      - run: npm test
  build:
    needs: test
    steps:
      - run: npm run build

Pipeline Stages

• Code linting and type checking
• Unit and integration tests
• Build and optimization
• Security scanning
• Deployment

Best Practices

• Keep builds fast (5-10 minutes)
• Cache dependencies
• Run independent jobs in parallel
• Protect main branch
