Open Source Build & Deployment Software
Build & Deployment tools automate the process of moving code from a repository to a live server. These tools handle continuous integration pipelines, container orchestration, and the management of databases and web applications. This type of software is for developers and DevOps engineers who need to manage their own infrastructure. By self-hosting these apps, you keep your source code and deployment logs on your own hardware. This approach removes reliance on external cloud platforms for hosting your git repositories and build artifacts.
