Set-up GitHub Actions

Please do the following steps in this order:

1. In the first commit of your feature branch create a .github/workflows folder and add a copy of .github/workflows/linters.yml to that folder.
   • Remember to use the file linked above
   • Remember that .github folder starts with a dot.
2. Do not make any changes in config files - they represent style guidelines that you share with your team - which is a group of all Microverse students.
   • If you think that change is necessary - open a Pull Request in this repository and let your code reviewer know about it.
3. When you open your first pull request you should see the result of the GitHub actions checks:

Click on the Details link of each action to see the full output and the errors that need to be fixed:

Set-up linters in your local env

Note: The npm package manager is going to create a node_modules directory to install all of your dependencies. You shouldn't commit that directory. To avoid that, you can create a .gitignore file and add node_modules to it:

# .gitignore
node_modules/
