For this hackathon, I worked on a github action to translate text documents using a AI translation service. It's still pretty MVP, but I'm pretty happy with what I could achieve with the short amount of free time after work. Hope it can help out open source project maintainers who wanted to incorporate translation with less hassle!

Went into it thinking it'd be a lot more straightforward than it turned out to be! 😅

I wanted to design a CI/CD pipeline that'd be truly DIY-able by anyone, instead of just my repository: GitHub's reusable workflow seemed to fit the bill perfectly. However, getting it to trigger onissue_comment events on top of pull request branches took a lot more tinkering than expected.

In the end, I'm happy to share a flexible solution while picking up a bunch of tips, tricks and best practices around designing GitHub Actions (and Codespaces) which I wouldn't have known about otherwise.
