GitHub Actions Masterclass: From Beginner to Advanced

Learn GitHub Actions and automate development workflows with confidence. By the end, you’ll be able to build and optimize CI/CD pipelines, create custom GitHub Actions, manage workflow execution, and apply security best practices. The course begins with setting up your development environment and understanding workflows, jobs, steps, and YAML. Next, you’ll explore automation techniques like workflow triggers, runners, and third-party actions. Hands-on exercises cover managing inputs, outputs, caching, and artifact sharing.

You’ll also work with reusable workflows, concurrency handling, and execution control to create scalable automation solutions. Advanced topics include matrices for parallel execution, expressions and variables for dynamic workflows, and secure environment management. You’ll also build JavaScript and Docker-based custom actions to extend automation capabilities. This course is ideal for developers and DevOps engineers looking to streamline workflows. Basic Git, JavaScript, and YAML knowledge are recommended.
