How do I define build steps in a Travis CI YAML file?

To define build steps in a Travis CI YAML file, you use the script section. This is where you specify the commands that should run during the build.

Can you give me an example of a simple build step?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

script:
  - echo "Building the project..."
  - make build

What if I need to run tests after the build?

You can add a before_script section for setup commands and then include your test commands in the script section. For example:

before_script:
  - echo "Setting up..."
script:
  - make build
  - make test

Is there a way to run different steps based on the branch?

Yes! You can use the branches section to specify different build steps for different branches. Here's an example:

branches:
  only:
    - main
script:
  - make build
  - make test
