I usually connect with my server via ssh in a terminal and run basic commands. What’s a better, more efficient and modern way of doing that? Especially considering ai and documentation along the way? I wonder if there’s a better approach than “connect from remote and act local”. Is there a method to “code local and push to remote”?
I use a fedora server with podman, caddyfile and vi.
To be fair to Ansible, that’s probably a packaging issue.
If the 1st run of an application creates a bunch of files and folders, then the packager won’t know about them and Ansible’s just relying on that.
But yeah, for 1 machine I’d find Ansible overkill (not a problem per se), but really helps when you have 5 Rasperry Pi Zeros scattered around the house 😉
