Multi-distro infrastructure automation using Vagrant and Ansible — provisions and configures web, database, and file servers across Rocky Linux and Ubuntu. Demonstrates role-based playbook structure, Jinja2 templating, and cross-distribution configuration management.

Ansible playbooks to provision a production-ready Kubernetes 1.32 cluster from scratch on Rocky Linux. Handles kernel modules, firewall configuration, containerd runtime, kubeadm init, Flannel CNI, and worker node joining — fully idempotent.

A lightweight system information CLI tool written in Go. No external dependencies — reads directly from Linux virtual filesystems. Supports subcommands for disk, process, and network info with JSON output and cross-platform support planned.

sysinfo                      # system overview
sysinfo processes cpu -c 10  # top 10 processes by CPU
sysinfo network ports        # listening ports and owning processes
sysinfo disk --json          # disk usage as JSON
