I build projects with git as the hosting and backend using code that commits back to it's own repo. Usuauly it's when I need to host, run and store things - and might want to look at historic data. Using github actions, you can do this pretty simply, and free if it's open-source. E.g. https://gist.github.com/ukd1/6efdf12a19036b9edc537e64b1d331e... - a real-world example is https://github.com/ukd1/lvms-events - which each day parses some html --> ical, and hosts it in git.
