Now change a few files:

• files/gitconfig should contain your details.
• files/id_rsa should contain an ssh-key used to commit to GitHub.
• inventory/hosts should contain your machine.

You are now ready to code! Have fun using these commands:

# See if your code meets all rules.
ansible-lint .
# Test all scenarios.
molecule test
# Test a specific scenario.
