Save Private Jenkins!
summary
Jenkins X modernizes classic Jenkins by moving server-side features to cloud-native components and a CLI-driven workflow. It uses the jx CLI to scaffold apps, create per-PR preview environments and Helm charts, and push artifacts; pipelines run on Tekton (with ephemeral Jenkins masters as fallback) and metadata is stored in GCS/CRDs; deployments use GitOps promotions with automated staging→prod rollouts and optional canary releases via Flagger.
