## Description
|
|
|
|
This role executes tasks that are relevant for all users by configuring essential shell files. It deploys customized templates for [`.bashrc`](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bash#Startup_files) and [`.bash_profile`](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bash#Login_shells) for any specified user. This ensures a consistent and enhanced shell environment across the system.
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
Optimized for modular configuration, this role uses Jinja2 templates to create:
|
|
- A customized [`.bashrc`](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bash#Startup_files) that sets up a dynamic welcome message, system information, and useful aliases.
|
|
- A standardized [`.bash_profile`](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bash#Login_shells) that sources the `.bashrc` to ensure consistent behavior upon login.
|
|
|
|
The role adapts its file paths based on the target user (e.g. the [root user](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superuser) or a standard user), ensuring proper ownership and permissions.
