Hello dev.to community! π
This is my first post here, and Iβm starting with something that every DevOps aspirant needs β a clear roadmap.
DevOps can feel overwhelming at first because of the number of tools and skills involved. But with the right plan, you can move step by step and master it.
Hereβs the roadmap Iβll be following (and sharing updates as I learn π).
πΉ What is DevOps?
DevOps is a culture + set of practices that bridges development and operations, helping teams build, test, and deploy software faster and more reliably.
Itβs not just toolsβitβs about automation + collaboration + continuous improvement.
