It's been 2 years that my team use Docker Swarm in production and for development. Throughout these years, I used Ansible and bash scripts to automate development environment creation and production provisioning and deployment.
I am really sad about the recent Docker news which is a synonym of death for Swarm 🙁 I think it's a really good choice for small deployments and thanks to its shallow learning curve, I think it's a better candidate to spread the DevOps mindset in a team.
Anyway, I wanted to open-source our setup because it's a good DevOps and Infrastructure as Code example, and I hope it will be useful or inspiring for some teams.

It's my first open-source project, so your feedback will be really appreciated!!
Hey, cool! I will take a look at it since life put DevOps tasks in my desk and I had to dig in and learn. While I don’t want to take that path in full I love the huge universe of tools and different solutions for the same problem, and overall it’s a nice set of skills to add to the resume.
I never got to see/understand Ansible, Terraform, Pupet, etc. but always been curious. I’ve practically done things with Docker, Jenkins and connected/implemented others solutions like SonarQube, Artifactory or ELK Stack.
What I think I’d like to know more in this area is Nix and NixOps.

Just when I got the hang of Swarm … here comes Mirantis.
Could you elaborate on how docker swarm is “dying”? I’ve read the docker Enterprise has been aquired by mirantis, but I’m struggling finding a connection to them “killing” docker swarm. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.
Nice layout of a project dude. Keep up the great work!
Might I ask why Ansible was needed, in addition to terraform?
