Title: Need help building an Ansible Playbook YAML Generator looking for guidance
I want to build a project called “Ansible Playbook YAML Generator.” The idea is to create a tool that can generate Ansible playbooks automatically based on user input (like target hosts, packages to install, services to start, etc.).on fortigate firewall
I’m still in the planning stage, and I’d really appreciate advice from the community on:
- What language should I use? (Python, Go, Node, or Bash?)
- Should I build this as a CLI tool or a Web app?
- What features would actually be useful in real DevOps work?
- Are there any similar tools I should study first?
- What Ansible modules should I support (nginx, docker, kubernetes, etc.)?
