GitHub Action runner images (AMI) for AWS EC2
As part of the RunsOn service, we automatically maintain and publish replicas of the official GitHub runner images ↗ images as AWS-formatted images (AMIs) in this repository: https://github.com/runs-on/runner-images-for-aws ↗.
New images are automatically released every 2 weeks, and are slightly trimmed to remove outdated software, or (mostly useless) caches.
