Tekton and ArgoCD: The Dynamic Duo for Kube Native CI/CD
summary
Live demo shows a Quarkus racing game feature flag flipped to enable phone shaking via accelerometer, Tekton pipeline builds the Java app, tags and pushes a container to Quay, then updates the Kubernetes manifests; Argo CD notices the change and rolls a five‑pod deployment to the new image. Pipelines run as Tekton TaskRuns and PipelineRuns, manifests auto‑updated by the CI task, and the feature successfully reaches real players (about 11–16 per team). Tekton pipeline builds and pushes a Quay image Argo CD detects manifest change and rolls out.
