spring-starter-terminal
Simple script that uses dialog as a terminal UI for creating new Spring application using the Spring Starter / Spring Initializer service. (by themkat)
dockerfiles
Various Docker files for various operations and programs. Inspired by Jessie Frazelle who inspired me to start sharing Dockerfiles :) (by themkat)

The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Become a Maven ninja!
There is probably much more that could be covered, but I think this is the most important once you know the basics. If you are new to Maven, suggest starting with an introduction like this. The guide covers creating projects as well, but many modern frameworks have easier and better generators. Spring Boot have its own initializer website, and I've made a CLI version. Quarkus also have a nice web UI you can use to create new projects.

Creating container images with Ansible (using ansible-bender)
Let's do something slightly different by demonstrating the usage of volumes and Ansible roles during build. It's not unusual to want to package an application into a container, and for simplicity we put it into the same directory as the playbook itself (so we can use the playbook_dir variable). To not make this example too advanced, we simply use a Spring Boot application made from Spring Initializr without any changes (if you prefer a terminal UI, there is one for that too). We'll use geerlingguys java role to setup Java to not boggle down the example with Java setup.

Creating container images with Ansible (using ansible-bender)
In the last article, building container images with Ansible was briefly discussed. An external blog article on that very subject was linked to, and if you read it you may have seen a lot of manual steps using Docker- and Buildah-commands. This seems like a lot of boiler plate code just to make container images with Ansible, right? From that idea, ansible-bender was born! Ansible-Bender uses Buildah to build your images, and Podman to handle them (some commands like pushing images, build logs, inspecting images etc. are included into Ansible-Bender). Buildah is a container image builder that does not depend on any external programs, and can build containers for any container runtime. A very big downside is that it's only supported on GNU/Linux-based systems, which is bad news if you are using Mac OS X (or god forbid if you are one of the Windows users, ugh). To combat this issue I made a Docker image that includes Buildah and all dependencies, that can be used to run Ansible-Bender on other platforms. Might be a bit slower than just using it on a GNU/Linux-based system, but beats not being able to use it at all!
What are some alternatives?
When comparing spring-starter-terminal and dockerfiles you can also consider the following projects:
ansible-bender - ansible-playbook + buildah = a sweet container image
