Summary

The text discusses the integration of GitHub Actions with Railway, a platform for deploying applications. Github Actions allow users to automate various parts of their development workflow, such as building and testing apps. To deploy an app on Railway using GitHub Actions, users need to create a project token, which is then added to repository secrets in GitHub. A workflow is created that triggers when code is pushed to the main branch, pulling the latest version of the Railway CLI docker image and deploying the app. The `RAILWAY_TOKEN` must be kept secret, while the service ID can be passed freely as an environment variable or part of the deploy command.
