Build a CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions in two YAML files
A developer shares a four-step CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions that runs lint, security scan, Docker build, and deploy on every push to master. The pipeline uses Trivy for vulnerability scanning and blocks deployment if critical CVEs are found. It fits in two YAML files and deploys to a VPS via SSH.

This is a practical, low-cost approach to CI/CD that demystifies DevOps for solo developers, but the security scanning step is the real standout—it forces proactive dependency management.
