GitHub Action
OS specific runner
All credit for the original work goes to (KnicKnic). This is a detached-fork of https://github.com/KnicKnic/os-specific-run. This version (2.0.0 and beyond) will attempt to stay upto date on the lastest version of NPM and other dependecies.

The problem is you have to figure them out, and they end up creating multiple steps one per each OS. I think a single step (rather than multiple steps in each OS that are not run) looks cleaner and is more obvious what failed.
