Welcome to "Get Go-ing with GitHub Actions" (aka.ms/go-actions) at GopherCon 2020 (November 9th-13th) by Aaron Wislang (@as_w) and David Justice (@davidjustice).

We will have two in-person sessions on:

• Monday November 9th from 12:00 PM-3:00 PM EST (3 Hours). See: https://www.gophercon.com/agenda/session/395971
• Tuesday, November from 10th 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM EST (3 Hours). See: https://www.gophercon.com/agenda/session/421901

We will continue to run our lab asynchronously on the GopherCon Discord (http://aka.ms/gophercon-discord) throughout GopherCon via the #microsoft (sponsors) and #github-actions (speakers) text and voice (workshop instructors) channels. You can also reach out to Aaron (Aaron W#0101) and/or David (devigned#6504), any time.

You can also join us for our Microsoft AMA @ 12:30 PM-2:00 PM EST daily from Wednesday 11 to Friday 13th (see: https://www.gophercon.com/agenda ), followed by other sessions each day.

Micro-labs are self-contained learning streams which can be done in any order. The content discussed within each of the micro-labs is not intended to build upon previous micro-labs.

In this micro-lab we will help you get started telling your story to the world by setting up a Hugo site using GitHub Actions and GitHub Pages.

It's time to use GitHub Actions to take your Go to the Cloud with Serverless Functions, Containers and more.

Explore the use of matrix builds and Go's ability to easily target multiple arch / platforms. In this example you will learn about resources for verifying your software across multiple platforms and architectures concurrently, how to properly inject version information into Go binaries via a release workflow, and how to create an automated release with artifacts spanning multiple platforms and architectures.

Did you know you can manually trigger GitHub Action workflows? You can and some folks use this in some really creative ways. Together, we'll walk through setting one up and doing something kind of silly with it. You will be encouraged to put your own spin on workflow_dispatch actions.

Join us as we build our first GitHub Action using Go. Learn the basics of creating a GitHub Action, and how you can leverage your existing Go skills to build your own build automation.

Let's build a containerized application and publish it to K8s. In this micro-lab, we'll use GitHub Actions to build, test and publish our containerized application to K8s.

• A GitHub Account, of any kind, which has not exceeded its monthly GitHub Actions quota.
• An Azure Subscription (e.g. Free or Student, or other), for the Actions that deploy Go Functions, Containers, or Storage, to the cloud.

We follow the GopherCon Code of Conduct which can be found here.
