Happy to share what I've been working on these past weeks at RISE: free #riscv GitHub Actions runners for any open source project.

Real hardware, not QEMU. Ephemeral #kubernetes pods on bare-metal RISC-V nodes.

1. Install the #github app:
- for orgs https://github.com/apps/rise-risc-v-runners
- for personal accounts: https://github.com/apps/rise-risc-v-runners-personal

2. Set `runs-on: ubuntu-24.04-riscv` in your workflow, and you're good to go.
