What is CI/CD?

CI/CD stands for Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment, a method to frequently deliver apps by introducing automation into the stages of app development.

Setting Up a CI/CD Pipeline with GitHub Actions

GitHub Actions allows you to automate workflows for CI/CD in your repository. This section explains how to create a CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions.

Example GitHub Actions Workflow

name: CI/CD Pipeline
on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Set up Node.js
        uses: actions/setup-node@v2
        with:
          node-version: '14'
      - name: Install dependencies
        run: npm install
      - name: Run tests
        run: npm test
      - name: Deploy to Production
        run: npm run deploy

With this setup, every push to the main branch triggers the pipeline, ensuring that your code is tested and deployed automatically.
