About Woodpecker CI
Woodpecker CI is a community fork of Drone CI that maintains the simplicity of container-native pipelines while being fully community-driven under an open-source license. Every step runs in an isolated container.
Pipelines are defined in simple YAML and support matrix builds, multiple pipelines per repository, secrets management, and cron scheduling. The server-agent architecture allows distributed build execution.
Woodpecker supports GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, Forgejo, and Bitbucket as forge integrations. Plugin ecosystem provides pre-built steps for common tasks like Docker builds, notifications, and deployments.
The project appeals to teams who want a simple, self-hosted CI/CD solution without commercial licensing restrictions, particularly in the Forgejo/Gitea ecosystem.
