## What it is
An interactive Ansible tutorial that runs entirely in Docker containers, adapted from the leucos/ansible-tuto lessons. A single shell script spins up one tutorial container and three simulated target nodes so learners can practice playbooks, modules, variables, and roles hands-on.

## Use cases
- learn ansible from scratch
- practice writing ansible playbooks
- hands-on ansible tutorial without setting up VMs
- learn ansible roles and ansible galaxy
- sandbox environment for trying ansible modules
- teach configuration management basics

## When to choose
- you want a zero-setup Ansible learning environment with only Docker installed
- you prefer guided, sequential lessons with real target hosts to deploy against
- you want to safely experiment with playbooks, templates, and roles in disposable containers

## When to avoid
- you need current Ansible versions or modern best practices, as the content and containers are dated (Ubuntu 16.04, last release 2022)
- you already know Ansible and need a reference rather than a tutorial
- you cannot run Docker locally and prefer browser-based sandboxes beyond play-with-docker
