Abstract:
GitHub Actions are powerful workflow automations that support your projects success. You can use these automations in every step of the development project, from delivery to deployment. In this workshop we will learn how to use GitHub Actions to ensure continuous delivery (CD) of an application. We'll start by exploring options for triggering a CD GitHub Workflow, then control how the workflow is executed, and deploy the application to Microsoft Azure using a GitHub Deploy action. Afterwards, we'll do some data management while exploring GitHub Secrets and some additional GitHub Actions.
