So I've seen GitHub actions pop-up suddenly but I can't figure
out what it is.
Googling it gives me some high-level generic description about
"workflow automation" but I don't see what concrete problem
it's trying to solve. Can anyone please explain what's in it
for the hobbyist D coder?
Also I've seen some articles about it dating back to 2018, but
apparently you can only recently sign up for the beta.
Seems like a tighter integration of Azure Pipelines (somewhat
adapted) into GitHub, an obvious move by Microsoft to foster
their position. So Windows/Linux/macOS on x86_64 (Azure) hosts,
max. 6 hours runtime per job, max 20 jobs in parallel (Azure: 10).
