Show HN: Peekl – A modern alternative to Ansible and Puppet

2 points| redat00 | 7 days ago |peekl.dev

Hi everyone!

For the last few months I've been working on "Peekl" a configuration management solution.

The idea was to get the good part of what I liked with Ansible (the ease of use, the fact that you can get started quickly) with what I loved with Puppet (mainly the pull based model with the agent).

The project is now in a state where I believe I can share it with the world. Of course there is still a long way to go for it to be on-par in term of features to Puppet or Ansible, but I think that currently it's a good starting point.

Why YAML ? :(

redat00|6 days ago

Hi! I found that it was the most easy language to get started with. I looked at other language such as `HCL` (the Terraform language) but I thought that it would be too complex to learn, and to get started with. I really want this project to be easy to work with.

What language did you have in mind that you'd rather use compared to YAML ?
