Gitea Actions Runner is designed to streamline your software development and deployment process by plugging seamlessly into the Gitea ecosystem. As part of the broader Gitea Actions experience, it has already started to change the way teams handle their CI/CD workflows.
What is Gitea Actions Runner?
Gitea Actions Runner is the agent that powers Gitea Actions, our built-in CI/CD system. It works alongside Gitea's built-in Git server and auxiliary services to create an isolated environment in which the tasks that make up your CI/CD pipeline run.
The runner works on a simple yet effective premise: it listens for any job dispatched from a Gitea server and runs those jobs in the environment you configure. Whenever a commit or a pull request is made, the runner kicks into action and provides immediate feedback about the impact of the change.
Why choose Gitea Actions Runner?
Here’s why Gitea Actions Runner stands out amidst a sea of CI/CD tools:
