Role Name
=========

Manage package installation for a number of packages
that sometimes need special handling. Some are built from
source, some are appimages, some are special sources like
`cargo`, `npm`, `go`, etc.

When defining a workstation role, I had a lot of packages that needed
special instructions to properly install and use. I decided to
simplify the management of those packages by creating a role with
special handling.

Included packages:

- Desktop applications: alacritty, firefox, ghostty, kitty, neovide
- Shell applications: btop, carapace, nushell, fzf, jq, neovim, pipx, ripgrep,
  stow, tmux, zoxide
- Infrastructure applications: ansible, consul, nomad, packer, terraform
- Development tools: cmake, git, go, nodejs, hugo, rust, tidy
- Misc: editorconfig, hashicorp package repository, nerdfonts, pandoc,
  pytho3-pip, terra repository for fedora, zfs
- Cargo packages: dotenv-linter, eza, htmx-lsp, starship
- Go packages: air, buf, checkmake, glow, lazygit, revive, templ, gopls
- NPM packages: ansible-language-server, commitlint-cli,
  commitlint-config-conventional, markdownlint-cli, quobix-vacuum,
  tailwindcss-languageserver
- Pipx packages: cmakelang, sqlfluff
