Jenkins

What is Jenkins?
👉 Jenkins is a free automation tool mostly used for CI/CD (Continuous Integration and Deployment).

Imagine you're a team leader in cricket. Players (developers) keep coming and updating their scores (code). You (Jenkins) automatically track, compile, and publish the scorecard (app) every time.
