  • awesome-actions

    A curated list of awesome actions to use on GitHub

  • combine-prs-workflow

    Combine/group together PRs (for example from Dependabot and similar services)

  • GitHub Actions can do some neat things. I got tired of waiting for Dependabot (tool that makes automatic PRs to update your middleware, acquired by GitHub) to add an option to group PRs together (it opens a separate PR for each dependency that can be updated, so merging and re-running CI can take a long time) so I scratched my own itch and made a workflow that merges their PRs together: https://github.com/hrvey/combine-prs-workflow Been running it for a year now, and still pretty happy with it.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • vitemadose

    Détection de créneaux de vaccination disponibles pour l'outil ViteMaDose (by CovidTrackerFr)

  • A French website - vitemadose.com - used GitHub Actions to find an available vaccine center near. The actions were scraping official websites with available slots to make them available all at once - in a single view.

  • wflow

    Discontinued 🐆 EXPERIMENTAL -- Runs GitHub Actions workflows locally (local) -- Don't run your YAML like a 🐪

  • Not sure how “curated” this list is. The first one that caught my eye (https://github.com/phishy/wflow) has a “this repo is archived” warning with no updates since 2019.

  • act

    Run your GitHub Actions locally 🚀

  • Similar to that tool but more than a simulation, you can use `act` to run GitHub Actions locally. Great for testing before deploying.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
