See how-to guides, concepts, and tutorials tailored to specific personas:

Tools

  • CircleCI -

    CircleCI is a continuous integration and delivery platform.

    The CNB project maintains an integration, called an orb, which allows users to run pack commands inside their pipelines.

  • GitLab - Gitlab is a web-based DevOps platform. The Auto DevOps feature uses pack to build applications prior to deploying them.
  • kpack -

    kpack is a Kubernetes-native platform that uses unprivileged Kubernetes primitives to perform buildpacks builds and keep application images up-to-date.

    kpack is part of the Buildpacks Community organization.

  • Pack - Pack is a CLI tool maintained by the CNB project to support the use of buildpacks.
  • Tekton -

    Tekton is an open-source CI/CD system running on k8s.

    The CNB project has created two reference “tasks” for performing buildpacks builds, both of which use the lifecycle directly (i.e. they do not use pack).

Reference
