Course Overview
Hi everyone. My name is Andrew Morgan, and welcome to the course, Using Jenkins X for Cloud‑native CI/CD. I'm an independent consultant specializing in microservices and continuous delivery. Jenkins X is an exciting new CI/CD technology designed for the cloud and completely independent of classic Jenkins. In this course, we're going to give a walkthrough of Jenkins X and its features with no prior experience required. Some of the major topics that we will cover include setting up Jenkins X using Terraform and Jenkins X boot, creating applications using quick starts and build packs, using GitOps to manage our environments, using ChatOps to orchestrate your pull requests, and creating Jenkins X pipelines. By the end of this course, you'll know the basics of Jenkins X and will be able to install it and then build and deploy your applications using it. Before beginning the course, you should be familiar with CI/CD and using the terminal. Some knowledge of Kubernetes, Docker, and Helm would also be useful, but not a necessity. I hope you'll join me on this journey to learn Jenkins X with the Using Jenkins X for Cloud‑native CI/CD course, at Pluralsight.
