Automating with GitHub Actions

“

- [Michael] As demand increases for feature rich software, developers and engineers are constantly searching for tools and techniques that can improve their development workflows. GitHub actions provides an integrated way to do this by automating tasks in GitHub, the world's most popular hosted repository service. With actions, the events that take place in your GitHub repo like pushes, pull requests and releases are used as triggers to kick off workflows that can orchestrate a variety of tasks. Hello, I'm Michael Jenkins, a computer engineer with experience in process automation. In this course, I'll walk you through everything you need to know to get started with GitHub actions. To begin, we'll get familiar with actions, workflows and how to use them to automate GitHub. Then, we'll move on to developing workflows that handle pull requests and run CICB pipelines. And finally, we'll develop our own custom action and share it with other developers in the GitHub marketplace. I'm looking forward to working with you as you learn more about GitHub actions.
