Improve Documentation please

[Lauro235]

As far as I can tell, the documentation for the test-with-actions lesson template is very out of date.

The steps from 8 - 10 cannot be followed. The language doesn't match what is actually seen on the screen. Not only that but no prompt is given to create a new branch or Create a pull request.

Perhaps I'm just misunderstanding the instructions but regardless, despite my best faith attempt at following the lesson, I cannot seem to make sense of the instructions as listed below.

8. Click Start commit, and choose to make a new branch named ci.
9. Click Propose a new file.
10. Click Create pull request.

@Lauro235 Thanks for opening an issue. We are currently updating the Skills courses, I'll go ahead and triage this for review.

New to GitHub. The skills courses have been a great way to learn basics. One thing I found confusing at first was mis-alignment between instructions and what I see on my screen.

Offering suggestions below. Screenshots go a long way.

Looking back I can see my 'issue' may not be helpful to everyone, but I broadly feel that the more precise the instructions, the less the user has to worry about learning the GUI interface and the more they can focus on the content of Github actions. I appreciate the response and the updating of documentation.

@m-den-01A Thank you for the suggestions! I can confirm that screenshots will be updated as we roll through updating the courses in general. We appreciate your suggestions on the matter!

@Lauro235 Feedback is always helpful! Thank you again for sharing with us.

@cmwilson21 do you have a solution for how to get the step 1 action to move on to step 2? If someone has no experience with actions they will not know how to inspect the actions in place to get them to pass and move on to the next step making this course unusable.

Update: if you are reading this and are stuck on the first step, don't delete anything from the simple workflow template as the instructions tell you to and it will pass the checks and move to step 2.

Thanks for the very helpful feedback, folks. I think this course has gotten some improvements since it was opened and, although still not perfect, the feedback in this issue may be outdated now.
