What is CI/CD?
Automated processes that test your code (Continuous Integration) and deploy it (Continuous Deployment) whenever you make changes
Why It Matters
CI/CD catches bugs early through automated testing and makes deploying updates as simple as pushing code
Real-World Example
When you push code to GitHub, tests run automatically, and if they pass, your site updates within minutes
