Our COVID-19 dashboard has been powered by this code since the start of the pandemic. Up until now, I've been running it on a Linode server that I spun up for $5 a month. Then a colleague suggested I run it for free on GitHub using GitHub Actions ... something I did not know about.
GitHub Actions are legit.
