<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "verdana" , "geneva" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Jenkins provides continuous integration services for software development. It is a server-based system running in a servlet container such as Apache Tomcat. It supports SCM tools including AccuRev, CVS, Subversion, Git, Mercurial, Perforce, Clearcase and RTC, and can execute Apache Ant and Apache Maven based projects as well as arbitrary <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/shell_scripting">shell scripts</a> and Windows batch commands. The primary developer of Jenkins is Kohsuke Kawaguchi. Released under the MIT License, Jenkins is free software.</span></span></div>

Your next step is to install <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/NGINX">Nginx </a>along some needed dependencies and the nano text editor so you can edit some config files. Of course, you can use your favorite text editor.</div>
<div style="color: #222222;">
Install the official Nginx repository for <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/Centos">CentOS</a> 7 and then install Nginx, nano etc… Use the below commands to do that:</div>
</span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "verdana" , "geneva" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Start Nginx and enable it to start on boot:</span></span></div>
