21        Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles
22        configuration management, application deployment, cloud provisioning,
23        ad-hoc task execution, network automation, and multi-node orchestration. Ansible makes complex
24        changes like zero-downtime rolling updates with load balancers easy. More information on `the Ansible website <https://ansible.com/>`_.
25
26        Design Principles
27        =================
28
29        *  Have a dead-simple setup process with a minimal learning curve.
30        *  Manage machines very quickly and in parallel.
31        *  Avoid custom-agents and additional open ports, be agentless by
32           leveraging the existing SSH daemon.
33        *  Describe infrastructure in a language that is both machine and human
34           friendly.
35        *  Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content.
36        *  Manage new remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping any
37           software.
38        *  Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python.
39        *  Be usable as non-root.
40        *  Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.
41
42        Use Ansible
43        ===========
44
45        You can install a released version of Ansible with ``pip`` or a package manager. See our
46        `installation guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html>`_ for details on installing Ansible
47        on a variety of platforms.
48
49        Red Hat offers supported builds of `Ansible Engine <https://www.ansible.com/ansible-engine>`_.
50
51        Power users and developers can run the ``devel`` branch, which has the latest
52        features and fixes, directly. Although it is reasonably stable, you are more likely to encounter
53        breaking changes when running the ``devel`` branch. We recommend getting involved
54        in the Ansible community if you want to run the ``devel`` branch.
55
56        Get Involved
57        ============
58
59        *  Read `Community
60           Information <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community>`_ for all
61           kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project,
62           including mailing list information and how to submit bug reports and
63           code to Ansible.
64        *  Join a `Working Group
65           <https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki>`_, an organized community devoted to a specific technology domain or platform.
66        *  Submit a proposed code update through a pull request to the ``devel`` branch.
67        *  Talk to us before making larger changes
68           to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone
69           know what is going on, but it also helps save time and effort if we decide
70           some changes are needed.
71        *  For a list of email lists, IRC channels and Working Groups, see the
72           `Communication page <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community/communication.html>`_
73
74        Coding Guidelines
75        =================
76
77        We document our Coding Guidelines in the `Developer Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/>`_. We particularly suggest you review:
78
79        * `Contributing your module to Ansible <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_checklist.html>`_
80        * `Conventions, tips, and pitfalls <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_best_practices.html>`_
81
82        Branch Info
83        ===========
84
85        *  The ``devel`` branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
86        *  The ``stable-2.X`` branches correspond to stable releases.
87        *  Create a branch based on ``devel`` and set up a `dev environment <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_modules_general.html#common-environment-setup>`_ if you want to open a PR.
88        *  See the `Ansible release and maintenance <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/reference_appendices/release_and_maintenance.html>`_ page for information about active branches.

90        Roadmap
91        =======
92
93        Based on team and community feedback, an initial roadmap will be published for a major or minor version (ex: 2.7, 2.8).
94        The `Ansible Roadmap page <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/roadmap/>`_ details what is planned and how to influence the roadmap.
