Went into it thinking it'd be a lot more straightforward than it turned out to be! 😅

I wanted to design a CI/CD pipeline that'd be truly DIY-able by anyone, instead of just my repository: GitHub's reusable workflow seemed to fit the bill perfectly. However, getting it to trigger on issue_comment events on top of pull request branches took a lot more tinkering than expected.

In the end, I'm happy to share a flexible solution while picking up a bunch of tips, tricks and best practices around designing GitHub Actions (and Codespaces) which I wouldn't have known about otherwise.
