The Jenkins Blue Ocean is a completely new way of interacting with Jenkins. It's more of a UI sidekick to the main Jenkins application. The following are some the features of Jenkins Blue Ocean:
- Improved visualizations
- Pipeline editor
- Personalization
- Quick and easy pipeline setup wizard for Git and GitHub
The pipelines that you create using your classic Jenkins interface can be visualized in the new Jenkins Blue Ocean, and vice versa. As I said earlier, Jenkins Blue Ocean is a UI sidekick to the main Jenkins application.
In the following section, we will visualize the Jenkins pipelines that we created in the previous section in Blue Ocean. We will also create a new pipeline, just to get a look at and feel for the new Jenkins Blue Ocean interface.
