Continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) has revolutionized how software teams work together to turn code into applications. Gone are the days of code integration headaches and repeated manual processes. CI/CD makes modern software development possible — fast, reliable, and automated. At its core, CI/CD is about creating a seamless pipeline that takes code from a developer’s environment all the way to production and incorporates feedback in real time. CI helps teams catch issues early — before they become costly problems — by ensuring that code changes are frequently merged into a shared repository, automatically tested, and validated. CD extends this by automating deployments, making releases predictable and stress-free. Rather than relying on manual processes and complex toolchains for software development, teams can use a robust CI/CD pipeline to build, test, and deploy software.
