DevNotes CI/CD

6/2/2025

DevNotes is a self-contained playground for cloud-native tooling. The project packages a trivial “notes” web-app into separate backend and frontend containers, deploys them to a local kind cluster, and automates the workflow with a Jenkins pipeline.

Highlights

  • Docker Compose for one-command local spins
  • Kubernetes (kind) manifests with fixed port mapping & a PVC that survives pod restarts
  • Jenkinsfile that builds images and deploys to the cluster
  • Bootstrap script that builds, loads, and applies everything in one go

Stack

Docker · kind · kubectl · Jenkins · Flask · Nginx

Quick Start

Terminal window
# Docker-compose
docker-compose up --build


# Kubernetes
./bootstrap-kind.sh


# Jenkins (optional)
cd jenkins && docker-compose up --build -d

Visit http://localhost:30080 (kind) or http://localhost:8000 (compose) to try the app.
