Automating the software development lifecycle

Gitpod has become the leading cloud development environment (CDE) platform with over 1.5 million users, who use it for an average of 36 hours a week. The company aims to automate the entire software development lifecycle by providing secure, compartmentalized, and readily available environments that are API accessible and machine comprehensible. Gitpod's new feature set introduces zero-trust development environments, which verify every actor and service, significantly reducing attack surface areas and risks of malware or code exfiltration. Additionally, the platform now supports Development Containers, automations, and a standardized interface for tool vendors and developer productivity teams to integrate and build upon, aiming to drive developer productivity and help companies scale and succeed in the decade ahead.
