1. How to Deploy Jenkins To make the tests below easier, let me first introduce two ways to deploy Jenkins. Here I use the shaowenchen/jenkins:2.277.4 image. In a production environment, you should replace it with the official jenkins/jenkins image or your own custom image. 1.1 Running with docker-compose The docker-compose.yaml file

1. Decoupling the Engine to Unlock Pipeline Capabilities When designing a system, we often face a dilemma. Do we contain the complexity and offer a single, easy-to-use capability to the outside; or do we release the complexity and return flexibility to the user? This is a real test of product

This was not a requirement I made up on a whim — at the time, real ToB commercial customers were actually asking for a solution.
