Preview Environment System · CI-Driven · Full Stack
Automated preview environment system triggered by CI pipelines. On every PR tagged for preview, a GitHub Actions pipeline builds and pushes a branch-tagged Docker image, which triggers a Northflank webhook to instantiate a full-stack environment from a template — server, worker, PostgreSQL, migrations, and a unique subdomain URL. Environments are completely isolated per PR with no shared state, spin up in minutes, and are automatically destroyed when the PR is closed or merged. Production releases follow the same pipeline on merge to master, using Helm atomic upgrades with zero-downtime rolling updates.
