## What it is
GitHub Actions Importer is a GitHub CLI extension (backed by a Docker container) that plans, tests, and automates migration of CI/CD pipelines to GitHub Actions. It converts pipelines from Azure DevOps, Bamboo, Bitbucket, CircleCI, GitLab, Jenkins, and Travis CI.

## Use cases
- migrate jenkins pipelines to github actions
- convert circleci config to github actions workflow
- plan a migration from gitlab ci to github actions
- automate azure devops pipeline conversion
- audit existing ci pipelines before moving to github actions
- translate travis ci yaml to github actions

## When to choose
- you are moving CI/CD from a supported platform (Jenkins, CircleCI, GitLab, Azure DevOps, etc.) to GitHub Actions
- you want to forecast migration effort and auto-generate workflow files
- you already use the GitHub CLI and Docker

## When to avoid
- you are already on GitHub Actions and not migrating
- your source CI platform is not among the supported ones
- you need fully hand-tuned workflows without generated boilerplate
