Ansible Playbook - Ubuntu Dev Desktop Setup

This is an Ansible version of my dotfiles repo. Does exactly the same thing, just with a lot less clunk and complication.

Sets up and configures all of the software I use for development on an Ubuntu desktop - currently targets Ubuntu 18.04.

What It Does

• Installs packages
• Set up my dotfiles
  • Super-custom git config
  • Sexy bash prompt
  • Lots of useful shortcuts
• Sets up vim, vim-plug and plugins
• Sets up rvm and installs Ruby
• Installs proper fonts

What It'll Do Soon

• Configure Visual Studio Code (not just install it)
• Set up pyenv and pythons
• Set up nvm and nodes
• Set up my keys
• Other stuff I can't think of right now

TODO

• Tidy the vim config
• Switch to Docker repos once they exist for Bionic
