# Actions Overview

- Actions are Event Driven
- Live in the .github/workflows folder
- Workflows are defined in YAML

---

![bg right:60% w:700](./img/event-job.drawio.png)

# Workflows
- [Events](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/events-that-trigger-workflows) trigger workflows
- Workflows contain jobs
- Jobs contain steps
- Steps are commands or actions

---

![bg right:60% w:750](./img/job-runner.drawio.png)
# Jobs
- Workflows can contain multiple jobs
- Each job runs on a [Runner](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners)
