Fucking Shell Scripts
Coauthor here.  Well, this is a surprise!  This project was mainly borne out of our frustrations with Chef and then Ansible for configuring our servers.A few thoughts:
1)  This project is incomplete and is more of a concept than anything.  We wrote it literally in an afternoon, and were giggling like schoolgirls the whole time.2)  There is value in what Ansible provides.  It does a lot of things for you.  FSS did not replace ansible where we work.All that being said however, I feel like this (or a project like this) does have merit, if executed properly.  I feel that once you get used to how FSS works, it might be a good solution for you.  We intentionally tried to keep it as simple as possible.
