Native GitLab Integration

Gitpod has partnered with GitLab to build a native integration in GitLab's UI. This collaboration aims to streamline the provisioning of dev environments for developers using GitLab. The integration allows users to launch cloud-based dev environments directly from gitlab.com without needing the Gitpod browser extension. The partnership aligns with GitLab's credo "Everyone can contribute," as it simplifies contributing by allowing anyone to spin up a ready-to-code developer environment in just a few seconds. The integration is currently live on gitlab.com and will be part of GitLab 13.5, which is set for release on October 22nd.
