Dream-like Drupal Delivery with StriderCD

Rebuilding the dev server on every push - we've all been there ... just a few scripts when in a post push hook and there we are. But things may as well go wrong ... so you have to setup some logging ... Its good to let others know about the result ... shall we talk to slack ? Send mails ? Run tests ? Compare runs ?

Turns out building all that on our own doesn't make sense, there is tools. If you like me dont like installing jenkins, look no more, here is a great-lite weight tool that can do quite a lot and even more. We've been deploying and integrating with it for over a year now and still love it.

StriderCD is built on top of the node.js stack, is highly modular, fast and rather elegant. Setting it to deploy drupal was a breeze, and i want to share what we did to help our continuous integration.
