How GitLab helped Fedora build websites and community

What this post added

This post details how the Fedora Project migrated its website development workflow to GitLab, leveraging GitLab Pages for automated deployment of static sites and CI/CD for testing merge requests with ephemeral environments. The adoption of GitLab simplified and standardized their development processes, moving away from a fragmented toolchain to a single platform for planning, implementation, and deployment. This initiative aimed to improve contributor experience, reduce burnout, and ensure long-term maintainability of their websites.
