# ...Hopefully this is useful to others at BYU. Feel free to ask me some questions about it, but I make no promises about being able to commit time to support it.
Just run npm install locally. There aren't many files here, so hopefully it should be pretty straightforward.
GitHub Actions will run the entry point from the action.yml. In our case, that happens to be /dist/index.js.
Actions run from GitHub repos. We don't want to check in node_modules. Hence, we package the app using npm run package.
Then, be sure to create a new GitHub release, following SemVer.
