    Project mention: Getting started with FrankenPHP, Laravel and Docker | dev.to | 2025-04-23

    My base target is used for development use, but my production target is used for production use.

When that's done, I build the Docker image and send it to my container registry.

    Project mention: Any program can be a GitHub Actions shell | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-07

    https://store.dhall-lang.org/Prelude-v23.1.0/JSON/Type.dhall...

    basically, to do recursive definitions, you have to lambda encode your data types, work with them like that, and then finally "reify" them with, like, a concrete list type at the end, which means that all those lambdas evaluate away and you're just left with list data. This is neat and intresting and worthy of learning, but would be wildly overly-complicated for most eng teams I think.

    After hitting this point in the search, I decided to go another route: https://github.com/rhysd/actionlint

    and this project solved my needs such that I couldn't justify spending more time on it any longer.

  14. next-safe-action

    Project mention: Why I Migrated from Server Actions to tRPC | dev.to | 2025-04-18

    I recently tried to build a new Next.js app without tRPC, thinking I wouldn't need it anymore now that Server Actions are stable and there are tools like next-safe-action to help with validation, auth middleware, error handling, etc.

  15. changed-files

    :octocat: Github action to retrieve all (added, copied, modified, deleted, renamed, type changed, unmerged, unknown) files and directories.

    Project mention: GitHub ActioTargeted Attack on Coinbase Expanded to tj-actions/changed-files | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-05

    I'm so glad someone dug into this properly after the tj-actions maintainer started locking threads and refusing to look into how the PAT was leaked.

    Flutter environment for use in GitHub Actions. It works on Linux, Windows, and macOS.

    Project mention: How to Set Up Automated Tests with a QA Coding Agent for Flutter | dev.to | 2025-02-14

    The choice of subosito/flutter-action was excellent. After investigation, I found it's a popular and well-maintained community action for Flutter, handling everything from installation to flutter pub get. As someone new to Flutter, this saved me significant research time.
