There are several goals of this project

1. a friction-less way to get back to normal after a fresh install of an OS for local devices, and use a common set of expectations for all devices in my fleet
2. a way to easily provision and deploy cloud resources
3. a minimal amount of secret management by encrypting secrets

Used to provision cloud resources (currently on digital ocean and terraform):

• compute
• dns entries
• todo: firewall / vpc configs

Used for a clean and consistent debian virtualbox environment to generate debian packages since most of my systems are ubuntu. Currently not needed because I can accomplish the same thing with a pre-built debian vagrant box. Would be useful if I needed to do any additional scripted setup that can't be done with ansible.
