AWS CodeBuild vs LGTM: What are the differences?
AWS CodeBuild: Build and test code with continuous scaling. AWS CodeBuild is a fully managed build service that compiles source code, runs tests, and produces software packages that are ready to deploy. With CodeBuild, you don’t need to provision, manage, and scale your own build servers; LGTM: A simple pull request approval system for GitHub. LGTM is a simple pull request approval system using GitHub protected branches and maintainers files. Pull requests are locked and cannot be merged until the minimum number of approvals are received. Project maintainers can indicate their approval by commenting on the pull request and including LGTM (looks good to me) in their approval text.
AWS CodeBuild can be classified as a tool in the "Continuous Integration" category, while LGTM is grouped under "Tools for GitHub".
LGTM is an open source tool with 937 GitHub stars and 92 GitHub forks. Here's a link to LGTM's open source repository on GitHub.
