Tekton for Java Developers
summary
Tekton runs CI/CD on Kubernetes and demonstrates a concrete Java flow: a Task that uses a Maven container image to run mvn package, a git-clone task wired via Pipeline with workspaces and params, and an executed PipelineRun that generates TaskRuns and requires a service account and PVC. Core APIs are in beta while triggers (EventListener, TriggerBinding/TriggerTemplate) are alpha and may change. Expect steep learning and about six layers of indirection to propagate a deployment value to the final kubernetes manifest.
