• Advanced Workflows: Includes scripts for development, production, staged, and multi-badge deployments, plus CI/CD integration.
• Use Case: A team lead can set up a GitHub Actions workflow to automatically build, test, and deploy new versions of a MonaOS app to multiple Badger 2350 devices, ensuring consistent and reliable updates.
