This is my annual plug for the little-known bundlewrap: https://bundlewrap.org

It hits a really nice sweet spot, letting you automate things, without making everything too complex.

Recently, I've taken to just asking Claude Code to do things via bundlewrap. It seems to be about as easy for it to create bundles and templates that update systems, etc. as it would be to just update systems, etc. except you're left with something you can check in.

Here's the result of me asking it to set up Caddy to serve a website from my little Lenovo box in the laundry room: https://github.com/zellyn/bundlewrap-config/commit/d5f92ebb0...

What's the benefit of this over Ansible (which, at a first quick glance, it seems similar in philosophy to)?

It feels really simple, and Ansible feels like… a whole thing. I’m probably just going on vibes here, though!
