1. Star this repo 😉
2. Go to your repository
3. Add the following tag to your README.md file, you can give whatever title you want. Just make sure that you use <!-- DEFAULT-TAG:START --> <!-- DEFAULT-TAG:END --> in your readme. The workflow will replace this comment with the datetime of workflow:

   # 💫 Last Update

4. Create a folder named .github and create a workflows folder inside it, if it doesn't exist.
5. Create a new file named workflow-datetime.yml with the following contents inside the workflows folder:

   name: Datetime of Workflow
   on:
     push:
       branches:
         - main
       workflow_dispatch:
   jobs:
     workflow-date:
       name: Update the datetime of workflow in the README
       runs-on: ubuntu-latest
       steps:
         - name: Checkout
           uses: actions/checkout@v3
   
         - name: Update with Datetime of Workflow
           uses: ZekeriyaAY/workflow-date@main
           with:
             github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
             # date_format: '%a  %d %b %Y  %H:%M:%S%Z'
             # timezone: 'UTC'
             # tag: 'DEFAULT-TAG'
             # markdown_path: './README.md'
             # commit_branch: 'main'
             # commit_username: 'github-actions[bot]'
             # commit_email: 'github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com'
