NOTE:

After filming I discovered that the set-env command that I used within the Github Action was deprecated due to a security vulnerability (https://github.blog/changelog/2020-10-01-github-actions-deprecating-set-env-and-add-path-commands/). I replaced the usage with the updated method described here (https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/actions/reference/workflow-commands-for-github-actions#environment-files)
