Starter Workflows
These are the workflow files for helping people get started with GitHub Actions. They're presented whenever you start to create a new GitHub Actions workflow.
If you want to get started with GitHub Actions, you can use these starter workflows by clicking the "Actions" tab in the repository where you want to create a workflow.
Directory structure:
- ci: solutions for Continuous Integration
- automation: solutions for automating workflows.
- icons: svg icons for the relevant template
Each workflow must be written in YAML and have a .yml
extension. They also need a corresponding .properties.json
file that contains extra metadata about the workflow (this is displayed in the GitHub.com UI).
For example: ci/python-django.yml
and ci/python-django.properties.json
.
