Github Actions are an easy way to get started with Continuous Integration. You used to have to rely on services like Travis CI, Circle CI, etc. but now the main repository hosts have CI built into their platform.

In this video we'll setup a basic Node JS project and add ESLint to it. Then we'll set up a Github Action to run our `lint` script on every git push. I'll also show how it works with pull requests, and how to block pull requests in GitHub from being merged if they fail any checks.
