The key steps include: triggering workflows on push to main, running lint and type-checks on every PR, adding build caching (which alone saved ~15 minutes), auto-deploying to Vercel/Render on green builds, and sending Slack/email notifications on success or failure. The entire setup took one afternoon. ## Content 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺: 𝗆𝖺𝗇𝗎𝖺𝗅 𝖽𝖾𝗉𝗅𝗈𝗒𝗆𝖾𝗇𝗍𝗌 𝗐𝖾𝗋𝖾 𝗌𝗅𝗈𝗐, 𝗂𝗇𝖼𝗈𝗇𝗌𝗂𝗌𝗍𝖾𝗇𝗍, 𝖺𝗇𝖽 𝖺𝗇𝗑𝗂𝖾𝗍𝗒-𝗂𝗇𝖽𝗎𝖼𝗂𝗇𝗀. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝖺 𝖢𝖨/𝖢𝖣 𝗉𝗂𝗉𝖾𝗅𝗂𝗇𝖾 𝗍𝗁𝖺𝗍 𝖽𝗈𝖾𝗌 𝗍𝗁𝖾 𝗐𝗈𝗋𝗄. 𝖶𝗁𝖺𝗍 𝖨 𝗌𝖾𝗍 𝗎𝗉: 𝟣.
