After a few conversations with people on Lemmy and other places it became clear to me that most aren’t aware of what it can do and how much more robust it is compared to the usual “jankiness” we’re used to.
In this article I highlight less known features and give out a few practice examples on how to leverage Systemd to remove tons of redundant packages and processes.
And yes, Systemd does containers. :)
Is there an easier/quicker way than having to create a service unit and a timer unit by hand?
Maybe one of those tools? https://www.linux-magazine.com/Issues/2017/199/Systemd-Graphical-Tools or something Ansible https://github.com/vlcty/ansible-systemd-timers / https://yourlabs.io/oss/yourlabs.timer
But of I have to use separate tools… Can’t I just use a generator for a crontab? That’s not an advantage
