Setting up the staging environment follows exactly the same process as for production. Simply repeat the steps above, replacing production with staging wherever necessary.

Once your staging environment is configured, you can create a staging branch.

git checkout -b staging

Push your staging branch to GitHub.

git push --set-upstream origin staging

GitHub Actions will now automatically deploy your staging branch to your dedicated Stackhero Ruby instance for staging.
