Description

The GitHub marketplace provides actions like

https://github.com/marketplace/actions/setup-micromamba

which should allow to install conda/mamba and deal with caching.

We should look into it to remove the more artisanal solutions used currently by the action of showyourwork.

Related to #13 and possibly even #11 .
