## What is a CI/CD Workflow?
CI/CD stands for [continuous integration](https://www.cloudbees.com/continuous-delivery/continuous-integration) and [continuous delivery](https://www.cloudbees.com/blog/what-is-continuous-deployment-a-complete-explanation). CI/CD are a set of practices and automated processes that enable teams to deliver software more frequently and reduce tedious, manual, time-consuming processes. A CI/CD workflow typically involves several stages, such as code management, build automation, security and code quality scanning, testing, deployment, and release. The main aim of a CI/CD workflow is to reduce the time and effort required to deliver software, securely, while maintaining quality and stability
