Jenkins scripted pipeline or declarative pipeline

Question

I\'m trying to convert my old style project base workflow to a pipeline based on Jenkins. While going through docs I found there are two different syntaxes named scrip

Answer 1

declarative appears to be the more future-proof option and the one that people recommend. it's the only one the Visual Pipeline Editor can support. it supports validation. and it ends up having most of the power of scripted since you can fall back to scripted in most contexts. occasionally someone comes up with a use case where they can't quite do what they want to do with declarative, but this is generally people who have been using scripted for some time, and these feature gaps are likely to close in time.
