Drone

medium

Legacy container-native CI/CD platform now folded into Harness. New installs should usually prefer Woodpecker CI or Harness Open Source.

Drone CI is no longer an independently active project after the Harness acquisition. The open-source code now lives in the broader Harness repository. Woodpecker CI is the actively maintained community fork and is recommended for new lightweight CI installations.
