openssl base64 < <my-release-key.keystore> | tr -d '\n' | tee some_signing_key.jks.base64.txt
```
2. Create 4 Secret Key variables on your GitHub repository and fill in with the signing key information
    - `KEY_ALIAS` <- `<alias_name>`
    - `KEY_PASSWORD` <- `<your password>`
    - `KEY_STORE_PASSWORD` <- `<your key store password>`
