## 🚀 How the CI/CD Pipeline Works

1. Code is committed to a private Gitea repo.
2. Jenkins job picks up the change using a webhook.
3. Jenkins builds the Docker image for the .NET 8 API.
4. The image is pushed to Azure Container Registry.
5. Azure CLI is used to update the running Azure Container App.
