About:
Pipelight is a self-hosted CI/CD tool designed for simplicity and performance, written in Rust. It executes pipelines defined in a simple TOML configuration file, managing dependencies and steps efficiently. Its primary value is offering a lightweight, fast alternative to heavy orchestrators like Jenkins for small to medium-sized projects.
Key Features:
  • Declarative TOML configuration
  • Dependency-based execution graph
  • Docker container support
  • Self-contained binary (no JVM required)
Use Cases:
  • Automating build and test steps for local development
  • Deploying static sites or small web applications
  • Running linters and code quality checks
Alternatives:
  • GitHub Actions – Pipelight is self-hosted and offline-first, whereas GitHub Actions is cloud-tied.
  • Jenkins – Pipelight is significantly lighter and easier to configure without a web UI.
