The student will design and implement a comprehensive CI/CD pipeline for GasPlanner (https://github.com/jirkapok/GasPlanner), an open-source TypeScript-based Progressive Web Application for scuba diving decompression planning. The project currently lacks automated quality gates, systematic testing, version management, and reliable deployment processes. These deficiencies make confident releases impossible without disproportionate manual effort from a small team. The student will conduct a structured comparative evaluation of available CI/CD platforms, quality assurance tools, and testing strategies. The evaluation will analyse their properties and trade-offs, with emphasis on publicly available free-tier solutions designed for open-source projects and with simplicity and low maintenance overhead as first-class selection criteria.
Based on this evaluation, the student will implement a fully automated workflow covering code quality validation, optimised conditional test execution, semantic versioning, and production deployment with validation gates and rollback capability. The primary goal is to guarantee release reliability with minimal manual intervention. The pipeline shall be documented as a reproducible artefact alongside the comparative analysis and selection rationale, serving as a reference implementation for similar small open-source projects.
