This README provides detailed instructions on using the OIDC (OpenID Connect) GitHub Action to create and manage a test Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) cluster. This action allows for seamless integration and deployment of containerized applications to AWS ECS using GitHub workflows.

Before using this GitHub Action, ensure you have the following:

• An AWS account with appropriate permissions to create and manage ECS clusters.
• A GitHub repository where the workflow will be configured.
• Basic understanding of GitHub Actions, AWS ECS, and Docker.

• Register Github as an Identity Provider (OIDC)
• Action requests to generate signed JWT
• Issues a signed JWT
• Action sends JWT requested role ARN to AWS
• Validate JWT, Verify that the token is allowed to assume the requested role, and Send a short-lived access token in exchange

• Create a naked test ECS Cluster
• Create an AWS ECR Repository leveraging your GitHub username
