Intended Audience:
This book is for anyone who is trying to learn more about GitHub Actions. If you’re picking this book up, you should already have a basic knowledge of Git and GitHub, and now you’re trying to figure out how to implement Actions into your workflow. You likely have some experience with solutions like Jenkins, Travis CI, and so on, and the automation platform and framework of GitHub Actions may improve your software development lifecycle process. You might be a software developer, SRE, DevOps engineer, or something else entirely, but it is my hope that the sections outlined above will provide a complete learning solution for GitHub Actions for all readers.
