I frequently reinstall Linux. Is there a tool to say what to install and configure that I can just run once after OS install? Things like
- Install neovim, signal, steam
- Configure firefox, desktop environment
I’m using this for just me, on my personal machine.
I don’t anticipate it’s possible between different distros, so assume I’m reinstalling the same distro.
EDIT: thanks for replies. I’m mostly seeing Ansible and NixOS. I’ll start looking at those.
Why don’t you try distros in a virtual machine first?
I do, but something about it doesn’t feel right. Maybe I’m just not committing to it cos I can too easily jump back to the host OS
