 # Free I.T. Athen's Infrastructure
+
 This project is used to develop Ansible for deploying and maintaining websites
 and services operated by Free I.T. Athens (FRITA).
 
 - Requires GNU Make, Ansible, and Vagrant on the host
 
 ## Quick Start
+
 1. Clone this project
-2. Run `make` to provision a Debian 11 base box
+2. Run `make` to provision a Rocky 9 base box
 3. Go to
-    - [Traefik Dashboard](https://traefik.local.freeitathens.org:8443/dashboard/#/)
-    - [WordPress](https://www.local.freeitathens.org)
-    - [Nextcloud](https://cloud.local.freeitathens.org)
+   - [Traefik Dashboard](https://traefik.local.freeitathens.org:8443/dashboard/#/)
+   - [WordPress](https://www.local.freeitathens.org)
+   - [Nextcloud](https://cloud.local.freeitathens.org)
 4. Click through the HTTPS security warning
 
 ## Production
+
 1. Clone [production-env](https://github.com/freeitathens/production-env/) to `./environments`
 
-    ```
-    mkdir -p environments
-    git clone git@github.com:freeitathens/production-env.git ./environments
-    ```
+   ```
+   mkdir -p environments
+   git clone git@github.com:freeitathens/production-env.git ./environments
+   ```
 
 2. Run `./scripts/vault-key.sh` from the root of the project to obtain the Ansible Vault password
 3. Enter the Bitwarden Master Password
 4. Run `ansible-playbook` against the production servers, e.g.,
 
-    ```
-    ansible-playbook -u root -i environments/production --vault-pass-file ./.ansible_vault webserver.yml --diff --check
-    ```
+   ```
+   ansible-playbook -u root -i environments/production --vault-pass-file ./.ansible_vault webserver.yml --diff --check
+   ```
 
 5. Delete the `.ansible_vault` file when you are done
 
 ### Using Ansible Vault to add or rotate values
+
 Do not submit ciphertext into Ansible Vault with the indention formatting.<br />
 To submit, press `CTRL+d` twice.
 
 - Decrypt Ansible Vault values
 
-    ```
-    ansible-vault decrypt --vault-pass-file .ansible_vault
-    ```
+  ```
+  ansible-vault decrypt --vault-pass-file .ansible_vault
+  ```
 
 - Encrypt new Ansible Vault values
 
-    ```
-    ansible-vault encrypt --vault-pass-file .ansible_vault
-    ```
-    - e.g., `pwgen -s 100 1 | ansible-vault encrypt --vault-pass-file .ansible_vault`
+  ```
+  ansible-vault encrypt --vault-pass-file .ansible_vault
+  ```
+
+  - e.g., `pwgen -s 100 1 | ansible-vault encrypt --vault-pass-file .ansible_vault`
