Explanation

GitHub Actions workflows have two defining characteristics: (A) they are stored as files inside the .github/workflows/ directory of the repository, which is what GitHub scans to discover and register them; and (C) they are written in YAML syntax, using keys like 'on', 'jobs', and 'steps'. There is no official GitHub Workflow Designer (B) - workflows are hand-authored YAML. Workflows work in both public and private repositories (D is false). They are YAML, not JSON (E is false).
