Project Overview

A personal CI/CD project that automates the software delivery lifecycle. A code push or pull request triggers validation, testing, container image creation, registry publishing, and deployment to a cloud-hosted environment.

Portfolio note: This is presented as a personal project concept/implementation. Only describe it as completed after you have actually built, tested, and documented the deployment.

Implementation

  1. Create a Git repository with application source code and a Dockerfile.
  2. Define GitHub Actions workflows for pull-request checks and deployment branches.
  3. Run automated tests before creating a release image.
  4. Build and tag Docker images using commit or release identifiers.
  5. Authenticate securely with the container registry using GitHub Secrets or environment-protected credentials.
  6. Deploy the approved image and verify application health after deployment.
