With this live demo, you can now have a look at the PipeCD platform in use without self preparing quickstart or such. It’s way easier (and faster) to make a try by clicking around and seeing how you can get when using PipeCD as the CD platform on your own.

How to access

The PipeCD play environment console is available at https://play.pipecd.dev. After following the link, you will get the login page as below.

Notes for the PipeCD play environment

  1. Since the limitation of the resources, you can only log in with the Viewer role. This means you can only click around and see PipeCD team prepared examples, triggering new deployments or creating new resources are disabled.
  2. Currently, only applications of kinds: KUBERNETES, CLOUDRUN and TERRAFORM are prepared and available to see on the play environment console. We will add example applications of other kinds (LAMBDA, ECS, etc.) later.
  3. The application configuration files for those examples on the play environment are published at pipe-cd/examples repository. Those configuration files are real-life useable configurations, but only on our cluster, since the encrypted credentials placed in those files are ours. You can replace those and use on your own.

Happy PipeCD-ing 👋
