I have been doing some amount of Continuous Integration work lately; that's certainly one of the popular things these days.

It has been changing; once upon a time, our folks at work adopted QuickBuild, which still periodically helps us to run out of disk space ;-)   More recently, Jenkins and and Travis CI grew popular particularly in Linux-based environments.  The latest and greatest is that GitHub and GitLab have "CI" offerings allowing you to write voluminous amounts of YAML that tend to deploy Docker and/or Kubernetes components to set up test environments.

Then came today's Link of Interest...   (Sourced from Leah Kirchen's blog; see https://leahneukirchen.org/trivium/2020-07-12 )

Laminar tries to do CI somewhat simpler, and in more of a "Unix flavour", rather than filling up on XML and YAML remappings of stuff.  Unlike a lot of these CI tools, it tries NOT to keep infinite gobs of artifacts around, which probably makes it less popular with disk manufacturers ;-)
