Creating a MarketPlace GitHub action
- When you're applying for a job, employers want to see samples of work that gives them a good idea of your abilities. In this course, I'm going to show you how to build the type of project that employers would love to see, a GitHub Action that's featured in the GitHub Marketplace. We'll be working in a variety of languages and formats like Python, shell scripts, YAML, XML and Docker containers. But honestly, that's not what's important. As a professional developer, what's really important is to show how you approach solving problems. The problem I wanted to solve with this action was to create a simple way to write and generate podcast feats that I could host using GitHub Pages. As you're going through this course, try to think about a problem you're having and how something like GitHub Actions could help you solve it. That will teach you a lot about actions, but it can also be something great for your developer portfolio. Let's get started.
