Pi-CI – A RasPi 5 emulator in a Docker image for creating and flashing configs
This seems similar to https://github.com/solo-io/packer-plugin-arm-image
I believe that can also work in non-RPi images, but I didn't get very far in the Pi-CI docs so maybe that does too.

auto-provisioning multiple raspberry pi's
Packer is a tool that can be used to build machine images. Basically, it takes a base image, runs a series of steps to provision that image, and then burns a new image. In my workplace we use it heavily to build AWS AMIs. But it has an ARM plugin that looks to be very very suitable for building customised Raspberry Pi images (my quick read of the doco there says it can go ahead and write the final image to an SD card for you too).

The journey of sharing a wired USB printer over the network
At that point, I decided to use packer-plugin-arm-image instead. The setup did not work out of the box, but after a simple PR, it built my first empty image and proved it's possible to build an ARM image locally.
