You’re getting at the heart of Actions. Actions was never intended to be “CI” or any such vertical capability. It has always intended to be a platform that exposes capabilities like CI or packages etc out to the world, but the underlying serverless very flexible workflow platform is the bedrock upon which we want to build the future
My long held view that the only real ‘competitor’ to what I want github to be was AWS/major cloud infra companies and if you believe in that view along with me, you likely see what the why the past four years of github and the next few years of github make a lot of sense
And it even makes more sense when you squint just a bit and realize what codespaces + repos + actions (CI/security/packages + other things) + automated workflows would eventually do. Now imagine a bit further out into the future and what it would mean if we understood your production workloads a bit more
