What is a GitHub environment?

GitHub environments store secrets unique to the environment. It also allows you to define deployment protection rules, such as requiring a manual approval before deployment.

Name

<Environment>-<AppName>-ecr (for example pirates-dev-app-too-tikki-ecr)

Next step

Add a GitHub workflow file to the application repository.
