Overview of this book

This practical guide to DevOps uses GitHub as the DevOps platform and shows how you can leverage the power of GitHub for collaboration, lean management, and secure and fast software delivery. The chapters provide simple solutions to common problems, thereby helping teams that are already on their DevOps journey to further advance into DevOps and speed up their software delivery performance. From finding the right metrics to measure your success to learning from other teams’ success stories without merely copying what they’ve done, this book has it all in one place. As you advance, you’ll find out how you can leverage the power of GitHub to accelerate your value delivery – by making work visible with GitHub Projects, measuring the right metrics with GitHub Insights, using solid and proven engineering practices with GitHub Actions and Advanced Security, and moving to event-based and loosely coupled software architecture. By the end of this GitHub book, you'll have understood what factors influence software delivery performance and how you can measure your capabilities, thus realizing where you stand in your journey and how you can move forward.

GitHub Codespaces

Since development environments are a big problem when it comes to security, it's a good idea to virtualize them and have a specific machine for each product. This way, you can implement least-privilege user rights and your engineers do not have to work with local administrator rights on their machines. You also can limit the number of tools that are needed for a specific product and minimize the attack surface.

Of course, you can use classical virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) images for that, but you can also use a more lightweight option: dev containers (see https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers, which is an extension for Visual Studio Code (VS Code) that is built on top of its client-server architecture). You can connect VS Code to a running container or instantiate a new instance. The complete configuration is stored in the repository (config as code), and you can share the same config for the dev container with your team.
