I’ve created a dummy node application for this section that can be found in this book’s GitHub repository in the Chapter 5 folder: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Mastering-GitHub-Actions/tree/main/Chapter%205/app.

- Create a new public repository in the organization and initialize it with the provided content. As you may recall, in the previous chapter, we put a file pattern filter on the starter workflow as I wanted to lock it down to known users.

jedi-way.mdfile pattern and place the following content:# I follow the force
The repository should look similar to what’s shown in the following screenshot:
