CI/CD and beyond with GitHub Actions
summary
Shows how GitHub Actions runs CI/CD plus event-driven automation: build then upload-artifact / download-artifact to pass outputs between jobs, deploy to Azure via published actions using a publishing profile stored as a secret, and require approvals by targeting environments with required approvals. Demonstrates external triggers with repository_dispatch (HTTP POST with a personal access token), runs community actions from a ~7,000-action marketplace, and uses self‑hosted agents, workflow_dispatch buttons, and secrets.
