That's so true! Not long ago, I wrote an Ansible playbook to install my open source software on a DigitalOcean VPS. I devoted so much time to learn Ansible as I had zero experience with it. I think I almost kept on working on that playbook for almost two months. Even after that, I was buggy.

One day, I just woke up and had an epiphany that a BASH script could do the same! On top of that, the end users would not have to install Ansible in order to run the playbook.
