What did you write in Ansible? Did you use ready-made playbooks or write your own?

In Ansible, I wrote both ready-made playbooks and created my own from scratch, depending on the task. Ready-made playbooks were used for standard operations — installing software, configuring services, deploying applications. For more specific scenarios, I wrote custom playbooks and roles to automate unique processes, such as integration with internal APIs, complex configuration logic, or dynamic inventory formation.

An example of my own playbook for installing and starting nginx:

- hosts: webservers
  become: yes
  tasks:
    - name: Install nginx
      apt:
        name: nginx
        state: present
        update_cache: yes

    - name: Start and enable nginx
      systemd:
        name: nginx
        state: started
        enabled: yes

Thus, I combined the use of ready-made solutions and custom developments for flexibility and efficiency in automation.
