## Introduction In this tutorial, I'll show you how to set up a complete CI/CD pipeline that automatically builds Docker images, pushes them to Docker Hub, and deploys your application to a production server - all triggered by a simple git push! ## What You'll Learn Setting up GitHub Actions for automated builds Building and pushing Docker images to Docker Hub Deploying containerized applications to a remote server Version tagging with Git commit SHAs Zero-downtime deployments with Docker Compose ## Prerequisites Before we start, make sure you have: A GitHub repository with your application code A Docker Hub account A remote server (VPS/Cloud VM) with Docker and Docker Compose installed SSH access to your server Basic understanding of Docker and Docker Compose ## Architecture Overview Our CI/CD pipeline consists of two main jobs: Build & Push : Build Docker images and push them to Docker Hub Deploy : Pull the new images on the server and restart containers Git Push → GitHub Actions → B
