Really any of them are preferable to nothing at all. Yep, CPAN at least does the bare minimum to get you up and running and saves its configs, you don't have to do a mini research project just to get it working. I think Jenkins is a good model for basic web UIs. I wish tools like Terraform and Consul had a setup UI, but I guess that's how Hashi makes money.
- smhenderson 8y agoThanks, I’m not familiar with Jenkins but I’ll check it out. I have to admit that I used to spend time reading and painstakingly setting each and every option in CPAN, some of the time not even understanding why or what I was setting, but these days I just say yes to “do you want me to try and configure as much as possible automatically?”. It hasn’t failed me yet! :-) Any tool that can do the heavy lifting by poking the environment a bit like that seemed to fit what you were talking about so that’s why I mentioned it.
