I'm planning on learning it properly when I can absorb it which will be slowly over the course of a long while probably, but it's good to have this intro and demo of everything that's possible. I noticed the thing about only building when a push goes to main, even if I don't remember the syntax (yet!) which solves an issue we noticed already in our pipelines.
