GitHub Actions

September 24, 2026 13:30 – 15:30 · 120 min Stage 12

What this session covers

Build a complete CI/CD pipeline for a pet adoption application in this hands-on workshop. Starting with your first workflow, you’ll automate testing, secure the software supply chain with GitHub security features, improve performance with caching and matrix strategies, and deploy to Azure. You’ll also create a custom action, reuse workflow logic across repositories, and enforce organizational standards with required workflows and branch protections. By the end, you’ll understand how GitHub Actions can take an application from commit to production with secure, scalable automation. Familiarity with Git basics is recommended, and an Azure subscription is required for the deployment exercises.
