PowerShell and GitHub Actions
In August 2020, GitHub introduced Composite Actions which allow you to create reusable workflows using shell scripts and even mix multiple shell languages in the same action. As an added benefit, the Actions Marketplace became open to developers who don't know TypeScript!
