Would have loved to see more of the technical details involved in spinning up Firecracker VMs on demand for Github Actions.

Hey thanks for the feedback. We may do some more around this. What kinds of things do you want to know?

To get hands on, you can run my Firecracker lab that I shared in the blog post, then add a runner can be done with "arkade system install actions-runner"

We also explain how it works here: https://docs.actuated.dev/faq/

Not the poster you were replying to, but I've looked at your firecracker init lab (cool stuff!) and just wondering how that fits together with a control plane. Would be cool to see how the orchestration happens in terms of messaging between host/guest and how I/O is provisioned on the host dynamically.
