Run your GitHub Actions locally 🚀

Test GitHub Actions on Your Laptop Before You Push — act parses .github/workflows files and runs them locally via Docker, matching GitHub's environment variables and filesystem so you get fast feedback without committing and pushing. It can also double as a task runner, letting workflow files replace a Makefile. A VS Code extension now lets you manage and run act without leaving your editor.
