Deployment patterns for .NET applications in GitHub Actions: GitHub Pages deployment for documentation sites (Starlight/Docusaurus), container registry push patterns for GHCR and ACR, Azure Web Apps deployment via azure/webapps-deploy, GitHub Environments with protection rules for staged rollouts, and rollback strategies for failed deployments.
Version assumptions: GitHub Actions workflow syntax v2. azure/webapps-deploy@v3 for Azure App Service. azure/login@v2 for Azure credential management. GitHub Environments for deployment gates.
Scope boundary: This skill owns deployment pipeline patterns for GitHub Actions. Container orchestration and runtime configuration are owned by [skill:dotnet-container-deployment]. Container image authoring is owned by [skill:dotnet-containers]. Publishing (NuGet push, container build) is in [skill:dotnet-gha-publish]. Composable workflow patterns are in [skill:dotnet-gha-patterns]. Starter CI templates are owned by [skill:dotnet-add-ci].
Out of scope: Container orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker Compose) -- see [skill:dotnet-container-deployment]. Container image authoring -- see [skill:dotnet-containers]. NuGet publishing and container builds -- see [skill:dotnet-gha-publish]. Starter CI templates -- see [skill:dotnet-add-ci]. Azure DevOps deployment -- see [skill:dotnet-ado-patterns]. CLI release pipelines -- see [skill:dotnet-cli-release-pipeline].
