I'm a full stack web developer who has been freelancing for the last 20 years. I write about everything from development to production and also have video courses on my site!
I just keep a dotfiles repo on GitHub and sync it / set it up with Ansible. It's nice because the same Ansible role works in WSL on Windows and a native Linux box.
I build developer tools and services at Microsoft (currently Codespaces, Live Share, IntelliCode) and maintain some OSS projects (CodeTour, GistPad, CodeSwing, WikiLens)

Nope, right now that specific Ansible role isn't open source since it has very personalized information in it specific to my development environment but if it were to be released, it would be in its own separate repo as a dedicated dotfiles Ansible role.
Then you would configure the role to set up your dotfiles. At some point I may refactor it all to be a general role, but it's not a super high priority at the moment. It mainly just clones my dotfiles repo and sets up symlinks.
Currently I have that functionality along with some other things all smashed together in a custom role, which happens to do other things besides dotfiles but is related to setting up a new WSL / Linux development environment.

Is the Ansible role code in the same dotfiles repo? That way you can clone it and run Ansible on it?
