I think this is one of the more sensible answers here. If your workstation is windows, then utilize WSL for ansible and deploy onto a ubuntu or debian host (I'm assuming it works fine on debian, I used ubuntu). You might run into some issues with ansible dependencies as the readme doesn't seem to cover everything from what i remember, but once ansible works and has the correct configs, deployment is super easy.

The ansible playbook just deploys docker containers. It does nginx proxy config, deploys the docker software, and then creates the compose file and deploys the containers. The reality is the ansible deploy and docker deploy both use docker. The ansible playbook just does more of everything all at once in an automated way.
I ran into some dependency issues(needed to install ansible-collection-community-docker on my fedora workstation), but after that it ran fine and installed everything first run. I made some adjustments to the inventory config afterwards, but aside from that it just worked.
