Worked on establishing the foundational infrastructure for the IMJONEZZ/USU-LLM-Class repository, focusing on developer onboarding and reproducible workflows. Set up a CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions, integrating automated testing with Pytest to ensure reliable builds and workflow verification. Configured the Python environment with the uv package manager, pinned the Python version, and defined dependencies in pyproject.toml to standardize development. Added a basic hello_world function with corresponding tests to validate the initial setup. Enhanced onboarding by providing comprehensive setup and usage documentation, enabling new contributors and students to quickly get started with a consistent, automated development environment.
