I'm looking for interesting tools to automate managing packaging and configuring everything automated.
And yeah I know about NixOS but I like to distro hop and experiment so I for now know these:
- Ansible - automating many machines, using different package names as vars and package managers.
- Bash - the most native and compatible scripting language that can be.
- Chezmoi - for dotfiles.
For now that's it. I'm looking forward for your suggestions!
You can make a custom distro based on one of the Universal Blue or Fedora Atomic images.

You could also go to the bleeding edge, make a Containerfile, and use
bootcandpodmanto build a bootable container.I recently installed Bazzite exclusively for gaming but I need to read more about Atomic distro.
It's very interesting. I'm still learning about it all, too..
