 # Overview
 Simple Node.js application to demonstrate the use of GitHub Actions
 
-Checkout [act](https://github.com/nektos/act) to run the actions locally
+# Look Ma, no Makefile!
+All the tasks necessary for testing, building and deploying this code is already defined in `.github/main.workflow` so why would you want to also create a `Makefile` for local development?  Now you can use [act](https://github.com/nektos/act) to run the actions locally!
+
+Try these:
+
+* `act -a lint` - run the linter
+* `act -a test` - run the linter
+* `act` - run the the entire pipeline
+* `act -l` - view the execution graph
+
