About Jenkins

Open-source automation server for building, testing, and deploying software.

Jenkins is a self-hosted continuous integration and continuous delivery server that automates the software build, test, and deployment pipeline. It organizes work into jobs, manages build agents (nodes), handles credentials, and provides views and queues for tracking pipeline activity. It is widely used by development teams that want to run automated pipelines on their own infrastructure.

Where to start

Stand up a Jenkins server, then connect to it via its web UI or the Remote Access API to configure jobs and run builds. The Node.js client package can be used to manage jobs, builds, nodes, credentials, and queues programmatically against a running Jenkins instance.
