Dev Environment Essentials for Web Developers: From Linux to Docker, Git, and CI/CD - A Practical Se

Most web developers can write code, but freeze when asked to set up a server, configure Docker, or build a CI/CD pipeline. This book bridges that gap.

Dev Environment Essentials is a hands-on guide that takes you from zero infrastructure knowledge to confidently setting up, deploying, and automating your development environment.

What you will learn:

• Linux essentials - commands, permissions, SSH, and networking basics
• JDK installation, build tools (Maven/Gradle), and environment variables
• Tomcat setup, web server architecture, and first deployment troubleshooting
• Git workflows, branching strategies, and SVN for enterprise teams
• Docker and containerization from scratch - Dockerfile, Compose, and Podman
• CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins - installation, Pipeline-as-Code, and advanced patterns
• Real-world scenarios: manual vs automated setup, blue-green deployment, and more

Written for working developers who code but can't deploy - by a developer with 10+ years of enterprise experience.
