GitHub Actions could be so much better
Been through that git commit; git push; repeat cycle too much as well until i discovered https://github.com/mxschmitt/action-tmate which gives a shell in between steps, which does not help with all problems but sure it's makes it less painful at times.

Act: Run your GitHub Actions locally
Unfortunately act is only capable of running very simple workflows. I've found this action to be more useful against the endless PR stream: https://github.com/mxschmitt/action-tmate
You drop it in your workflow and get an SSH shell into the worker, figure things out iteratively, then push when it's working.

Why the fuck are we templating YAML? (2019)
In the case of GitHub Actions, it's made more painful by the lack of support for YAML anchors, which provide a bare minimum of composability.

- please dont state this as a "workaround". your version simply "pretends" it is a tty when infact it is not an actual tty

PySide vs. .NET WinForms for a Desktop GUI App in 2023?
Even if you donβt pick Avalonia, their notes for Mac distribution look useful:
https://docs.avaloniaui.net/docs/distribution-publishing/mac...
For example, the GitHub actions runner itself is a modern .NET core project with CI except for .app packaging.

How to deal with MSVC in DevOps
If i understand this writing correctly (https://github.com/actions/runner/issues/904), running Windows containers in a windows-latest GH Actions host is not possible. While using a self-hosted runner on a Windows server might be an option, this is not what I want since it is a package repo for a well-known open source project, think of the package repo part as a mini-Conan. I wouldn't know who would want to host that. In the best case we would stay with just GH Actions to keep everything confined in one space :)
