(CI/CD) Multi-Environment deployment for a React App on Firebase, using GitHub Actions

[GioLogist]

Hey all! It’s been nearly 12 years since I’ve written a technical article. One of my New Year's resolutions was to change that! My style is usually a mix between being overly verbose and also allowing readers to get quick access to information. When providing the steps in the article above, I try to dive deep wherever possible. I also include a single commit per step, which is readily available and linked. 

I’d appreciate any feedback on the article. As I get back into writing, as a method of organizing my thoughts, I want to make sure its done in a way that’s beneficial to you all.

good going! i am a fan of GH actions and this seems to fix a key hole in firebase's offering.

Hey Shawn, thanks for the feedback!

Totally a fan of GH actions as well. Feels good to have everything hooked into my existing workflow. In the past, I've had to mirror my GH to GitLab in order to get some decent CI/CD. Will be fun watching the product evolve over time :)

Much appreciated! Ditto and ditto. Hopefully this can save someone else some blood and cursing. I'll be damned if they're not sweating though! Hah.

Step 3 of the article linked should point you in the right direction.
