Continuous Deployment Fundamentals with GitHub Actions
Maintaining code quality and reliability in the release process is no easy task. That’s why we launched Deployment Protection Rules to help you deliver high quality, secure applications with every deployment.
Increasing collaborative development with AI
Breaking down barriers to help internal development teams discover, understand, and reuse existing code—instead of building from scratch—is challenging.
Contributing without the setup with Codespaces
Step zero to making a pull request to a project is getting your environment setup to actually write the code. As we all know, this can take hours or potentially days. Between libraries and frameworks to install, version issues to contend with, and tools to configure, the barrier is challenging even in the best of situations.
Using GitHub Actions in your day job
Accelerating developer velocity and maintaining high-quality code are crucial goals for every software team. In today's fast-paced landscape, it's more critical than ever. But achieving this is no easy feat. It's a complex process that requires careful planning, coordination, and execution.
Write more code by writing less code with GitHub Copilot
While we don’t always like to admit it, being a developer can sometimes be frustrating. There is boilerplate code to write, regular expression syntax to look up, and an ever-growing list of frameworks with sometimes confusing standards making it a challenge at best to keep pace. Fortunately, there’s tools available to us which can help!
Reduce complexity and increase velocity with GitHub
If you're looking to start a new project, you know that getting up and running can be time-consuming and slow down your development cycles. But what if you could streamline the process and become productive right away?
Beyond comment driven development with GitHub Copilot X
GitHub Copilot, one of the most popular in the generative AI class, allows developers to write entire classes and functions with just a couple of comments. This allows developers to stay in the zone, focusing on solving the bigger problems.
Bringing quality into your workflow: From PR, to merge, to deploy
How do you automate more, deliver faster, and continuously improve?
SRE vs DevOps
DevOps and site reliability engineering (SRE) are practices that work together to help development teams build , implement, and optimize products. Together they help people work toward a common goal by managing different development processes. Owning different parts of the process means there are differences in the way they operate, provide support, and utilize tools.
What is a DevOps engineer and what does a DevOps engineer do?
A DevOps engineer optimizes an organization’s software delivery process to enable collaboration and innovation. Keep reading to learn more about what DevOps engineers do and what skills they rely on.
What is DevOps automation?
DevOps automation is a modern approach to software development that uses tools and processes to automate tasks and streamline workflows. It brings together developers, IT operations, and security teams to help them collaborate effectively and deliver reliable software. With DevOps automation, organizations are able to handle repetitive tasks, optimize processes, and deploy applications to production faster.

6 DevOps pitfalls and how to avoid them
DevOps is a transformative practice. Companies in almost every industry are increasingly adopting DevOps to give teams the time and freedom they need to tackle more challenging projects. But whenever you embrace a new strategy, there can be hiccups. Here are some common issues developers and organizations run into when adopting DevOps—and how to overcome them.
DevOps fundamentals: Defining DevOps principles
From headlines to job descriptions, DevOps has emerged as an outsized buzzword over the past decade—and for good reason. Organizations that successfully adopt DevOps often see big gains in software development speeds, improved reliability, faster product iterations, and have an easier time scaling their services.
A guide to DevOps tools and DevOps automation toolchains
What are DevOps tools? As an umbrella term, DevOps tools include any number of applications that automate processes within the software development lifecycle (SDLC), improve organizational collaboration, and implement monitoring and alerts. Organizations will often invest in building out a "DevOps toolchain," or collection of tools to use in its DevOps practice, to address each stage of the SDLC.
DevOps monitoring tools: Automating your DevOps monitoring processes
At its core, DevOps is a fundamentally data-driven practice. The ability to continuously improve the code that drives a product comes from understanding how it performs, what risks it introduces, and where to find opportunities. Monitoring tools tap into each layer of a product’s technology stack to deliver the data to catch code errors early, improve operational efficiency, and respond rapidly to changes in usage.
Should we think of DevOps as a methodology?
There’s one word that perfectly describes successful DevOps: flow. As individuals, we experience a state of flow when everything in our work comes together naturally and at the right time. DevOps enables that kind of flow at the organizational level through a combination of tooling, culture, and process.
The fundamentals of continuous integration in DevOps
What is continuous integration in DevOps? Continuous integration (CI) is a foundational DevOps practice where development teams integrate code changes from multiple contributors into a shared repository. Automation is used throughout this process to merge, build, and test code to facilitate a higher speed of software development. This process is often called a CI pipeline. When implemented properly, CI enables organizations to quickly identify defects and ship higher-quality software faster.
What is containerization?
When it’s successfully implemented, DevOps can transform software reliability by making the software development lifecycle (SDLC) more predictable through a combination of automation and cultural practices that favor deep collaboration and incremental releases. With less chance for variation, fewer code-related issues make it to production.
What is a DevOps pipeline? A complete guide
A DevOps pipeline combines processes, tooling, and automation to enable organizations and software teams to build, test, and deliver high-quality software quickly to end users.
What is the DevOps Model? Exploring foundational practices in DevOps
DevOps helps teams ship high-quality products faster by reducing the friction between writing, testing, and deploying code. GitHub offers a holistic platform designed to help organizations successfully adopt DevOps, making it easier to continuously ship and improve software.
The fundamentals of continuous deployment in DevOps
What is continuous deployment? Continuous deployment (CD) is an automated software release practice where code changes are deployed to different stages as they pass predefined tests. The goal of CD is to facilitate faster releases by using automation to help remove the need for human intervention as much as possible during the deployment process.
