  • markscribe

    Your personal markdown scribe with template-engine and Git(Hub) & RSS powers 📜

  • A much easier way to do this (or at least to get started) is with https://github.com/muesli/markscribe - you just have to write a Go template readme.md.tpl, and run the Action on a cron and it will render it to readme.md.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • cache

    Cache dependencies and build outputs in GitHub Actions

  • I do think it's good practice to enable caching, such that your script doesn't hit RubyGems / pip / npm / etc every time it runs.

    That way at least the automation activity stays entirely within the GitHub / Azure network.

    It looks like you can do that for Ruby by adding this:

    https://github.com/actions/cache/blob/master/examples.md#rub...

        - uses: ruby/setup-ruby@v1
