We sat down with longtime TXLF speaker Thomas Cameron to talk about “Getting Started with Ansible on Linux”! https://2025.texaslinuxfest.org/interviews/thomas-cameron/

Thomas’s approach? Start small, build confidence, lean on community. Whether you’re fresh to automation or just curious about open source, is the place to learn, connect, and grow.

“If you’re feeling overwhelmed… you’re in the right place.”
“Don’t ever hesitate to ask questions … that’s what this community is for.”
“Be present. Talk to folks. The hallway track is as valuable as the sessions.”

📅 When: October 3–4, 2025
📍 Where: Austin, Texas
🎫 Why go: Real people, real talks, real connection.
👉 Don’t miss out. Register now and come ready to ask questions, make friends, and discover what you didn’t even know you needed.
