- antod 11y agoI came here to say the same thing. That's one thing I really like about Salt is the way everything is really just an easily accessible Python dictionary in the end. It's really very customisable, and does a good job of balancing simplicity vs power for our uses. I haven't used Ansible a whole lot, but it also seems really good too. It seems positioned a bit closer to the simplicity end of that continuum though that suits a lot of people.
