Writing workflows
GitHub Actions workflows can automate tasks throughout the software development lifecycle.
Using workflow templates
GitHub provides workflow templates for a variety of languages and tooling.
Choosing when your workflow runs
You can configure workflows to run on a schedule or to run when certain events happen.
Choosing where your workflow runs
You can specify the compute environment your jobs and workflows run in.
Choosing what your workflow does
Workflows automate tasks in your software development lifecycle. Many tasks that you manually complete can be converted to a GitHub Actions workflow.
Building and testing
You can automatically build and test your projects with GitHub Actions.
