create deployment deployment_status issue created pull_request push schedule label created
(and many more) Events trigger work fl ows

jobs source: GitHub.com
You can create custom Actions or use Actions provided by

Keep your existing CI tool and enable GitHub Actions
Evaluate both CI tools running side-by-side

dangerous code on your self-hosted runner machine” source: GitHub.com
Final thoughts
“CI ensures that the code that we create, as a
team, works by providing us with rapid feedback on any problems”
