-When copying the exercise, we recommend the following settings:
-
-- For owner, choose your personal account or an organization to host the repository.
-
-- We recommend creating a public repository, since private repositories will use Actions minutes.
-   
-If the exercise isn't ready in 20 seconds, please check the [Actions](../../actions) tab.
-
-- Check to see if a job is running. Sometimes it simply takes a bit longer.
-
-- If the page shows a failed job, please submit an issue. Nice, you found a bug! 🐛
