After getting burned by broken FreeNAS updates one too many times, I figured I could do a much better job myself using just a stock Ubuntu install, some clever Ansible config and a bunch of Docker containers. Ansible-NAS was born!

## Getting Started
Head to [installation](installation.md) if you're ready to roll, or
[testing](testing.md) if you want to spin up a test VM first. If this is all
very confusing, there is also an [overview](overview.md) of the project and what
is required for complete beginners.
