I’m gonna be so real, that’s a lot of words that I didn’t understand but that’s okay- I suppose I’m probably not the target audience for for the software 😂

Best of luck to you and your project!

I find this happens a lot on software like this and people kind of assume visitors know what all the buzzwords mean or are in the same bubble as the developers, which is a shame really as I assume it scares a lot of people off.

TLDR: it lets you automate installing an operating system and software, mainly used for servers.

Oh that’s totally sick, I bet that would be hella useful if I had another computer I wanted to set up and have everything I’ve got on my main machine

The use case is more for server and linux-type operating systems but I bet there are some crazy folk who use it for their desktops. No idea!

They can’t just say “it’s puppet” because trademark. So they have to advertise as “alternative to the leading” blah blah to enterprises. This is absolutely targeted at enterprise to buy support, so gotta be legally friendly.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
