Suggestion

Splitting out of #11204: right now, each CI job typically spends over a minute in the Install step:

typescript-eslint/.github/workflows/ci.yml

Line 58 in f8db925

uses: ./.github/actions/prepare-install

Examples from a docs-only PR, #11200:

That seems very long to me. In theory this should all be cached nicely, so all CI needs to do is download a lockfile and run a bit of disk linking/processing. Why does this take a full minute? Can we speed it up?

fwiw looks like almost all of that is in the link step

Uh oh! @maschwenk, at least one image you shared is missing helpful alt text. Check #11205 (comment) to fix the following violations:

  • Images should have meaningful alternative text (alt text) at line 1

Alt text is an invisible description that helps screen readers describe images to blind or low-vision users. If you are using markdown to display images, add your alt text inside the brackets of the markdown image.

Learn more about alt text at Basic writing and formatting syntax: images on GitHub Docs.

Guessing that's because of the postinstall build?
