+Changes:
+1. new directory `.github/workflows`
+2. new file `.github/workflows/ex14.yml`
+   I believe any `.yml` file in `.github/workflows` will be included as a trigger for github actions.

+
+Remarks:
+1. You can review github actions activity at this url: https://github.com/rconybea/cmake-examples/actions
+2. Our CI workflow starts with a stock linux image (`ubuntu-latest`) provided by github.
+   We can and must install additional dependencies (`catch2`, `boost`)
+3. Note that we don't get full control over the CI host environment here - for example we rely on
+   the boost version that comes with whichever ubuntu release github provides;
+   it's possible for CI to fail sometime if/when a non-backward-compatible change shows up in
+   latest ubuntu release.
+4. We can achieve a fully-reproducible CI pipeline by containerizing.
+   See `.github/workflows/main.yml` in https://github.com/rconybea/xo-nix3 for github CI workflow using a custom docker container.
+   See https://github.com/rconybea/docker-xo-builder for construction of the docker container
