Using GoReleaser with GitLab: Multi-Arch Builds, Cosign, and SBOM Generation

In modern software development, multi-architecture support is becoming a standard requirement. Whether you’re targeting ARM64 environments, like Apple’s M1/M2 chips, or traditional AMD64 infrastructure, automating multi-architecture builds ensures consistent deployment across different platforms. At ContainerInfra, we use GoReleaser and GitLab CI to automate the creation of Docker images and binaries for both AMD64 and ARM64. This setup supports macOS and Linux systems, allowing our developers to work across multiple environments without the need for manual configuration or additional tools.
