For a first ansible playbook you should start with a small and simple task, till you get familiar with the syntax. Always try using in-built modules instead of writing custom codes. You should use version control to track any changes made to ansible.
Please help me with best practices in my first ansible playbook (Redhat/Fedora localhost install script)

Q: Why use Steampunk Spotter when we already have ansible-lint?
Anuj Jun 26, 2023
A:
Ansible-lint indicates that the playbook will fail while upgrading to a newer version of Ansible. However, spotter determines the target version of Ansible and is responsible for retrieving the source version from the system, to help you to be certain about which version the upgrade happened and to which one and manage all fixes according to that.

Q: Looking at ansible to replace a large number of ad-hoc scripts created by a predecessor - can I keep complex information about each node in the ansible inventory?
Paridhi Hemnani Jun 26, 2023
A:
You need to have one file per host or a VM in the host_vars containing all the information for provisioning. This information is here to allow ansible to configure the host or VM. Inventory is easy and only groups. All you need to do is use ansible and ansible_facts to collect information and keep it in a database or file.
