Overview

GitHub Actions are event driven YAML-defined entities: you can run a series of commands in response to a specific event. These YAML files are stored in the repository in a directory called .github/workflows. An event automatically triggers a workflow, which contains a job. The job uses steps to control the order in which actions are run. Actions are commands.
