How to Overcome GitHub’s Single-Topic Limitation ?

The GitHub Actions Marketplace allows users to filter by one topic, but what if you need actions that fit multiple categories, like Monitoring and Continuous Integration? GitHub’s search doesn’t support multi-topic filtering, slowing down your workflow.

By using Google Dorks, you can bypass this limitation and search for GitHub Actions that meet multiple topics simultaneously. Here’s a sample query:

    site:github.com/marketplace/actions “<category1>” “<category2”

- Use cs.github.com for code search when you need to find usage ( other than sample) for a library

- If you need to choose a tool to do something. After you find one, don't just use it: search for alternatives using: * crowded based developer alternatives sites like like alternativeto.net, stackshare.io * crowded based buisness alternatives sites like like g2.com, producthunt * Github topics based alternatives sites like libhunt.com, openbase.com, quine.sh
