STEP 13 OF 13
×Issues, Actions & GitHub Pages
GitHub is more than file storage — it includes built-in tools for tracking work, automating tasks, and even hosting websites.
Issues for tracking work
Issues let you log bugs, feature requests, or tasks directly inside a repository, complete with labels, assignees, and discussion threads.
GitHub Actions for automation
Actions can automatically run tests, build your project, or deploy it whenever you push code, defined through a simple configuration file in your repository.
GitHub Pages for hosting
Pages lets you publish a static website directly from a repository for free, perfect for documentation, portfolios, or simple project sites.
