Woodpecker

1255% coverage

Simple yet powerful CI/CD engine

If you want a CI/CD system (the thing that automatically tests and deploys your code when you push it) and you don't want to pay for GitHub Actions minutes or depend on a hosted service, Woodpecker is a self-hosted CI engine that's dead simple to set up. It's a community fork of Drone CI, after Drone went commercial.

Building Blocks

Jenkins is a platform — it bundles multiple capabilities into one subscription. These tools each cover one piece. Teams often assemble 2–3 of them instead of paying for the full suite.
