I’ve spent so much time trying to get act working well enough that it’s easier to use than pushing to remote but it gets really difficult when you involve things like AWS services (especially when the tokens to push to ECR aren’t available to me as a lowly dev). Localstack can help but the container registry functionality is locked behind the paid version
The DX of this project is not ideal at all. Like, they are using a different image than GitHub provided, so you get different errors when you deploy… which defeats the entire purpose!
That’s if you figured out how to run it locally in the first place after weird errors.
Kind of can but its easier for me to spam commits to main instead. https://github.com/nektos/act

I love the idea of act but pushing to your branch is a lot faster usually
