Time to act! Simulate your GitHub Action CI runs on your local machine with nektos/act Writing the perfect CI workflow in one shot is (for mere mortals like us anyway) basically impossible. Ever tried to setup your testing environment jobs, pushed to GitHub, wait for CI run to fail, read feedback, made some minor change, pushed, rinsed and repeated? What happens when your CI run takes dozens of minutes to execute each time? Surely that loop can go from cumbersome to nightmar-ish in actual large production projects. Luckily, incredible open source tools allow us to simulate complete or parts of CI runs on our local dev machine, hence saving precious time and frustration along the way. We will explore how, using nektos/act, you can drastically improve your development speed by running GitHub Actions directly on your computer without crashing everyone else's pipeline.
