        release_name: Release ${{ github.ref }}

    - name: Deploy to production

Best Practices

1. Use matrix strategy for multiple configurations
2. Cache dependencies for faster builds
3. Use secrets for sensitive data
4. Deploy to staging before production
5. Require approval for production deployment
6. Run security scans on every build
7. Use semantic versioning for releases
8. Rollback on failed deployment

Required Secrets

# GitHub Secrets
GITHUB_TOKEN
AZURE_WEBAPP_PUBLISH_PROFILE_STAGING
AZURE_WEBAPP_PUBLISH_PROFILE_PROD
SLACK_WEBHOOK
SONARQUBE_TOKEN

Example Usage

Create GitHub Actions workflows for:
- Build and test (unit + integration)
- Security scanning (NuGet, OWASP)
- Docker image build and push
- Deploy to staging
- Deploy to production (with approval)

I will generate complete CI/CD pipelines.
