GitHub Actions GitHub Actions
GitHub Actions makes it easy to automate all your software workflows, now with world-class CI/CD. Build, test, and deploy your code right from GitHub. Make code reviews, branch management, and issue triaging work the way you want.

Hosted runners
Linux, macOS, Windows, ARM, GPU, and containers make it easy to build and test all your projects. Run directly on a VM or inside a container. Use your own VMs, in the cloud or on-prem, with self-hosted runners.
Matrix builds
Save time with matrix workflows that simultaneously test across multiple operating systems and versions of your runtime.
Any language
GitHub Actions supports Node.js, Python, Java, Ruby, PHP, Go, Rust, .NET, and more. Build, test, and deploy applications in your language of choice.
Live logs
See your workflow run in realtime with color and emoji. It’s one click to copy a link that highlights a specific line number to share a CI/CD failure.
Built in secret store
Automate your software development practices with workflow files embracing the Git flow by codifying it in your repository.
Multi-container testing
Test your web service and its DB in your workflow by simply adding some docker-compose to your workflow file.
Kick off workflows on any GitHub event to automate tasks
Run a workflow on any event
Whether you want to build a container, deploy a web service, or automate welcoming new users to your open source projects—there's an action for that.

Actions is an exciting development and unlocks so much potential beyond CI/CD. It promises to streamline our workflows for a variety of tasks, from deploying our websites to querying the GitHub API for custom status reports to standard CI builds.
