Create a GitHub Action and use it in a workflow.

Welcome

  • What you'll build: An Actions workflow that will check emoji shortcode references in Markdown files.
  • Prerequisites: In this course you will work with issues and pull requests, as well as edit files. We recommend you take the Introduction to GitHub course first.
  • How long: This course can be finished in less than two hours.

In this course, you will:

  1. Create a workflow
  2. Add a job
  3. Add actions
  4. Merge your pull request
  5. See the action run

    • We recommend creating a public repository, as private repositories will use Actions minutes.
