Bob the Builder¶
Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler - Albert Einstein
Most CI/CD tools are too opinionated and do too much. Bob follows the UNIX philosophy of doing one thing and doing it well, and the Emacs/LISP like philosophy of small core with external extensibility, and strives for simpler, decomposed and hence more composable and unbundled design. Built on secure, rootless runtimes, Bob is flexible to run in modern Cloud Native environments. For more information, see the Rationale
Overview¶
Bob's API (accessible entirely through HTTP) enables a core set of CI/CD features.
- You are in control: Bob is un-opinionated about how you build your pipelines, giving you complete control and freedom to experiment and innovate.
- Bob is minimal: Bob is made up for three main composable components, Pipelines, Resources & Artifacts. You have the freedom to build on top of these basic blocks to create complex pipelines designed for solving your problems.
