Ansible is a powerful open-source automation tool that can be used to manage and configure multiple systems from a single control point. One of the great things about Ansible is that it can be installed on a variety of different operating systems, including Windows, Ubuntu, CentOS, and macOS.

After enabling WSL, you'll need to install a Linux distribution, such as Ubuntu, from the Microsoft Store. Once the distribution is installed, you can use the Linux terminal to install Ansible using apt-get.

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ansible/ansible
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ansible

Installing Ansible on Ubuntu:
Ansible can be installed on Ubuntu using the apt package manager. First, you'll need to add the Ansible PPA to your system by running the following command:

Next, update the package list and install Ansible using apt-get:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ansible

Installing Ansible on CentOS:
Ansible can be installed on CentOS using the yum package manager. First, you'll need to add the Ansible repository to your system by running the following command:

Hi Rahul, Firstly my sincere thanks to you for giving such a valuable content with a nice presentation(very good quality of audio and video). Appreciated your hardwork behind that but please don't mind & take this suggestion. Why did you put that background audio. It is actually disturbing/dominating the content of video. Concentration is also missing.
Your videos are very informative & We used to pay great attention to understand and use in our day-day tasks. Please avoid adding such background audio from next videos. Hope you understand. Thank you.

How come you got ansible 2.10.8 under Ubuntu, ansible 2.13.5 under CentOS, and ansible 7.10 (which contains ansible-core 2.14.1) under macOS?
Is there a more consistent way to install to always get the latest version, and specifically get either just ansible-core, or the full ansible community release, as desired?
