Pros / Cons
  • I'd used AWS previously for CI/CD and found the Github actions were far easier to set up and they provide a reasonable amount of processor minutes per month for free which I haven't yet breached so it's a free service there too!
  • Managing permissions, large repositories, and complex workflows can be confusing, and the free plan has limitations for private repos and advanced features.

  • We were using a google sheet with app script to track all our internal metrics, it was cumbersome and at the end not flexible at all.
