# What is Dagger?
|
|
|
|
Dagger is a portable devkit for CICD. It helps you develop powerful CICD pipelines that can run anywhere.
|
|
|
|
* Choose from a wide catalog of reusable actions, or create your own in your favorite programming language.
|
|
* Tie it all together with [CUE](https://cuelang.org), the next-generation declarative language invented at Google. No more YAML hell!
|
|
* Unify dev and CI. The same Dagger pipeline can run on your dev machine or in CI. All you need is a Docker-compatible runtime.
|
|
* Avoid CI lock-in. Dagger runs natively on Github Actions, Gitlab, CircleCI, Jenkins, AWS Codebuild, Tekton, and more.
|
|
* Test and debug your pipelines locally; catch configuration errors in seconds with static type checking.

## Dagger is alpha software
|
|
|
|
Warning! Dagger is _alpha-quality software_. It has many bugs, the user interface is minimal, and it may change in incompatible ways at any time. If you are still
|
|
willing to try it, thank you! We appreciate your help and encourage you to [ask
|
|
questions](https://github.com/dagger/dagger/discussions) and [report issues](https://github.com/dagger/dagger/issues).
