github actions CI #106

Open joelmccracken opened 1 month ago

joelmccracken commented 1 month ago

As I look more into this project, I keep thinking that some kind of CI would be great. As I use github actions in my day-to-day, and GH provides runners for linux/macos(x86 and arm)/windows, it could be used to cut releases etc when new versions arrive.

Thoughts?

Hi @joelmccracken. There isn't much for CI to do in this repo since the code here is not runnable on it's own, it needs to be completed with platform-specific code to produce a full Shen implementation. Then, in that case it makes sense to have a CI pipeline (see Shen/Scheme's actions for example)

so what I was thinking of was writing an action that would download one of the current implementations, build this kernel, start another implementation in the context of the newly built kernel, and run the tests (and/or maybe benchmarks). thoughts?
