If you've never heard of Ansible, you may as well look up puppet and chef too. They're all similar tools - configuration management and machine provisioning.
I like ansible because it's yaml and I had a smoother time doing things on my local machine (install this. Setup this project. Do these other things I don't feel like doing). ...but the others may be more "you".
But... If you're bashing apt installs, I almost promise you'll go for one of them 😉

I've heard of puppet and chef mentioned by the environment guys at work but wasn't sure what they did or in what context they were being used.
My bash scripts have done me proud and I've learnt a lot but I'm going to have a look at them all and see what's what.
Thanks for sharing 🙏
