Step 2: Create a Cloud Run service

In this step, you create a Cloud Run service to deploy the app from the repository that you forked in the previous step. You also set up an automatic Cloud Build trigger, so that the app is built and deployed to Google Cloud whenever you push a new commit to the repository.
