 One way to accomplish the above is to add badges to your project's README file.
 - Use https://pkg.go.dev/badge/ to create the pkg.go.dev link.
 - Go to https://goreportcard.com/ to generate a Go Report Card report, then click on the report badge in the upper right corner to see details on how to add the badge to your README.

+# Code Coverage
+
+While we recommend using one of the free websites available for monitoring code coverage
+during your continuous integration process, below is an example of how you can incorporate
+code coverage during the continuous integration process provided by github actions and 
+generate a code coverage report without one of those services.
+
+This yaml file will run tests on multiple system configurations, but will produce
+a code coverage report on only one of those. It will then create a code coverage badge
+and add it to the Readme file.
+
+This file should be put in the .github/workflows directory of your repo. 
+
+```yaml
+name: Go  # The name of the workflow that will appear on Github
+
+on:
+  push:
+    branches: [ main ]
+  pull_request:
+    branches: [ main ]
+  # Allows you to run this workflow manually from the Actions tab
+  workflow_dispatch:

+jobs:
