# Overview

JadeGit provides the source control capabilities used during development, but larger teams may choose to introduce supporting automation to make development workflows easier to manage and reproduce.

The pages in this section describe concepts and patterns that can be used to support those workflows. These typically involve preparing reusable artifacts and pipelines that help automate tasks such as setting up developer workspaces and running continuous integration processes against temporary databases.

These approaches are not required in order to use JadeGit itself. Instead, they illustrate ways in which teams may structure the supporting automation around JadeGit when introducing more automated development practices.
