About this playground
The Jenkins playground gives you a Linux machine with Jenkins running, the Pipeline and Git plugins, OpenJDK and git, and the Jenkins web interface in your browser. Create your first Pipeline job, write a Jenkinsfile, connect a repository and watch the build run stage by stage. Docker is not on this machine.
Frequently asked questions
Can I try Jenkins online for free?
Yes. With a free account you open a ready Jenkins in your browser, for 60-minute sessions. When one ends you can start another straight away.
Can I write and run a Jenkinsfile?
Yes. The Pipeline plugins are installed, so you can create a Pipeline job and write the Jenkinsfile in it or load it from a Git repository.
Is Docker available on the Jenkins machine?
No. This environment has Jenkins, Java and git only. To try Docker, open the Docker playground.
Are my jobs kept?
No. The machine is deleted when the session ends. Keep the Jenkinsfile in Git to use it again next session.
