## Things That I Discovered

### 1. **Run Ansible Playbook Locally on the Host Machine**

* I learned that we can run Ansible Playbooks directly on the host machine without needing a remote connection. This is particularly useful for scenarios where local configuration management is required or when working with a single machine.
* **Command Example**:

  ```bash
  ansible-playbook --connection=local --inventory 127.0.0.1, playbook_name.yml
  ```
* Further Reading: I’ve documented this in more detail on my TIL website. Check it out [here](https://gitbook.devjugal.com/til/ansible/run-ansible-playbook-locally).
