For every new project I work on, I start with the CI/CD pipeline before coding anything substantial. This allows me to build trust in the ability to release right from the beginning and it increases dramatically productivity and the ability to get feedback.

In my previous job, I was building CI/CD tools (Product Manager at Atlassian in Dev Tools for 5+ years) and I had the chance to speak to many companies. While there's still a lot to do in terms of adoption Continuous Delivery is sort of the new Agile - by that I mean that it's the new practice that will help you scale your development and get better results.

I wrote a bunch of articles about CI vs CD and how to adopt these practices. They're all on atlassian.com/continuous-delivery but atlassian.com/continuous-delivery/... would probably be a good start.
