What coding language does Ansible use?

The question is about Ansible

Answer:

Ansible itself is written in Python, and its playbooks, which define automation tasks, are written in YAML. YAML represents a minimum quantity of syntax elements, and it is human-readable. Thus, it’s easy for users to describe configurations and tasks without requiring deep coding experience. The modules written in Python also enable developers to extend Ansible’s capabilities when custom scripts are needed. This balance of power and simplicity attributed by the combination of Python with YAML places Ansible within reach for the most inexperienced up to very advanced DevOps engineers.
