I really hate it when people tell me to read the manual, but if you’re a visual learner like me, there are plenty of cheap courses on udemy.com or even free on utube. 😊

Hello, I’m a little confused about how Ansible works: Since its “clientless” it makes it sound like you don’t need to install software on the target hosts in order to run playbooks to configure them. >From the documentation: “Ansible works by connecting to your nodes and pushing out small programs, called "Ansible modules" to them. Ansible then executes these modules (over SSH by default), and removes them when finished.” This sounds like the only place you would need to install prerequisite software would be on the “control host” where Ansible is installed, not on the remote hosts you want to configure. However, When looking at the documentation for the modules, I see things like this: “The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.” boto boto3 botocore python >= 2.6 What is “the host that executes this module”? Is this the control host where you installed Ansible or the remote host that you want to change with the playbook?
