build-and-sign-monogame-android

This action allows you to build and sign your MonoGame Android project for release.

The action sets up dotnet, msbuild, and the mgcb build tool. It then builds the Content resources using mgcb, then builds and signs the game using msbuild, and finally uploads both the signed and unsigned aabs as artifacts to the workflow.

If you're looking for an action that only builds your MonoGame project, check out build-monogame.

This action uploads the generated aabs as artifacts (name: signed-aab) to the workflow, meaning you can then use download-artifact to download them via a second job in the workflow.
