# Zoom

## Overview
Welcome to the `desk-zoom` role documentation, a part of the `cymais` repository. This role is focused on installing video conferencing software on Linux systems, specifically tailored for personal use and remote work requirements.

## Role Tasks
The `main.yml` file in the `desk-zoom` role includes tasks for setting up video conferencing tools:

1. **Install Video Conference Software**:
   - Utilizes the `kewlfft.aur.aur` module with `yay` as the helper to install `zoom`, a popular video conferencing application.

## Other Resources
- As noted, the Microsoft Teams client is no longer natively supported on Linux. For more information and potential workarounds, you can visit the [AUR package page for Teams](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/teams).

## Dependencies
This role relies on:
- **sys-pgm-aur**: Ensures that an Arch User Repository (AUR) helper is installed, necessary for installing software like Zoom which may not be available in standard repositories.

## Purpose and Usage

## Prerequisites
- **Ansible**: Required to run this role.
- **Arch Linux-based System**: Given the use of `yay` and AUR, this role is designed for Arch Linux or similar distributions.
