Azure Pipelines

Azure Pipelines handles cloud-based CI/CD for Linux, macOS, and Windows, automating builds and deployments to any cloud. It provides ten free parallel jobs to kickstart these workflows, allowing teams to manage continuous integration and delivery pipelines without upfront infrastructure costs.

This setup suits teams already invested in the Microsoft ecosystem or those needing cross-platform support. The main catch is the lack of a permanent free tier beyond those initial parallel jobs, meaning costs shift to a pay-as-you-go model once you exceed the included capacity or require more concurrent builds.
