This lesson will briefly present the CI/CD systems of GitLab and GitHub, starting with GitLab Runners, which can be helpful for automating package development and deployment.

When developing Go packages and documentation, we want to be able to test the results and find bugs as quickly as possible. When everything works as expected, we might want to publish our results to the world automatically without spending more time on this. One of the best solutions for this is using a CI/CD system for automating tasks. This lesson will briefly illustrate the use of GitLab Runners for automating Go projects.

Note: In order to follow this lesson, we need to have a GitLab account, create a dedicated GitLab repository, and store the relevant files there. ...
