What Is Continuous Delivery?
CD ensures your software is:
-
Always testable
-
Always deployable
-
Always ready for release
The book describes a pipeline with stages such as Build, Publish, and Deploy (shown in the diagrams on page 2).
Why CD Matters
CD reduces:
-
Testing delays
-
Release-time errors
-
Deployment failures
It increases:
-
Productivity
-
Code quality
-
Speed of innovation
Real-World Example
The “Cat Picture Website” in Chapter 2 demonstrates how CD pipelines work step-by-step. Developers can push code multiple times a day without breaking production.
Final Thoughts
If you’re building apps, websites, or digital products, CD makes your development process faster and more reliable.
