Hey @jmfayard! This is awesome. Just wanted to let you know that we do require GitHub Actions Hackathon participants to write a post about their workflow/action on DEV to have a valid submission. The template for this post is here and more info on the hackathon is here. Thanks! These posts are due by September 17th by 11:59 PM PT :)

This is a very valuable contribution, thanks a lot @jmfayard!

Just as a note: I wanted to give it a few days to hear from the team internally (about their opinions on Actions vs other CI solutions) but it slipped from my radar a bit longer than I wanted to. Anyways, sorry for taking a bit to accept. Really appreciate it!
