Follow this guide to create a staging environment.

A staging environment is a controlled, production-like space used to test software changes before they go live.

Setup Guide

1. Clone, Fork, Set Origin

Clone the meetup repo git clone https://github.com/astoria-tech/meetup.git
Fork the repo. For this example we've named the fork "meetup"
Set a new git origin to your personal repo git remote add personal https://github.com/YOUR-GITHUB-USERNAME/meetup.git

2. Enable Actions

Go to your personal meetup fork on GitHub. E.g. https://github.com/YOUR-GITHUB-USERNAME/meetup, and enable Actions

3. Set up Secrets

In your Github, go to your forked "meetup" repo (or whichever name you've used for the fork)
Navigate to Settings
Click on Secrets and variables in the Security section, then Actions
Click on New repository secret, and create repository secrets for ASTRO_CONFIG_SITE and ASTRO_CONFIG_BASE

Secret 1
Name: ASTRO_CONFIG_SITE
Secret: https://YOUR-GITHUB-USERNAME.github.io

Secret 2
Name: ASTRO_CONFIG_BASE
Secret: /meetup

4. Push & PR

Push changes to your personal fork
Create PR explaining the changes, a screenshot if applicable, and a URL to the page that should be reviewed
