Develop CI/CD-pipelines locally in TypeScript with dagger.io

Frontend development reached a state where some SPAs are becoming as complex as some mainframe core banking systems where 3 decades ago. Jokes aside, in frontend as in backend development, one often cannot do without CI/CD pipelines to ensure quality, consistency, and rapid delivery of software. Automated workflows make it possible to quickly identify errors, improve code quality through automated tests, and rapidly deploy new features/updates into production. dagger.io, with its TypeScript SDK, enables an easy entry into CI/CD processes and container technologies with a JS/TS background. In this talk, we will look at an example of how we can define pipelines in TypeScript, and even reuse modules defined in other programming languages with ease. And locally - without any (cloud) vendor lock-in.
