Core concepts: Workflow
A configurable automated process that you can set up in your repository to build, test, package, release, or deploy any project on GitHub. Workflows are made up of one or more jobs and can be scheduled or activated by an event.
Core concepts: Events
You can configure a workflow to start once:
- An event on GitHub occurs, such as when someone pushes a commit to a repository or when an issue or pull request is created.
- A scheduled event begins.
- An external event occurs.
Core concepts: Job
A defined task made up of steps.
Jobs can run at the same time in parallel or be dependent on the status of a previous job and run sequentially
Core concepts: Step
A step is a set of tasks performed by a job.
