Overview

This repository is DEPRECATED, no longer supported and utterly outdated.

I used this repo to document my experience with Ansible and tools I find useful e.g. to setup my workstation and laptops.

I recommend to have a look at my dotfiles repo which supersede this repo in a more lightweight manner.

Thanks for stepping by!
