Looking for a developer to write a script

Hello everyone.

I am looking for a developer to write a script for automatic VPS setup so that I don't have to do it manually every time. I am willing to pay for the work.

This is not just installing a distro and updating it, it is a lot of different security settings, for example installing Fail2ban, Port knocking, Dnscrypt-proxy 2, etc.

If you know or have seen something similar on Github, please write..

This isn't very hard to do, just get the shell history of your last VPS setup and make it into a script. Some configuration files (like fail2ban and dnscrypt's) can be copied over from a working instance. There are even ways to set custom user and root passwords in batch. Am I missing something?

you joked well  :D

It's like the pilot went into the cockpit of a passenger plane and said who wants to steer, it's not difficult, there are instructions there 8) .

If I could do it myself, I wouldn't have created the topic, and since I'm ready to pay, it means that I can't do it, but I prepared a written assignment of what I want to receive. Everything I wrote I can do manually, I would like to automate the process so that changing the VPS every time I don't have to do it manually.

I'm sure that in the future, with the help of artificial intelligence, the user will not need to know the languages ​​Bash, Python, C, C++ and others, all this will be done by artificial intelligence, but now it is done by a person, or rather, someone who can, has studied this, understands ...

That day is already here.

Feed Chatgpt your manual commands and config file changes and tell it you want it automated and just like magic it will appear.
May take a little refinement. And you need to be precise in your instructions otherwise "garbage in, garbage out".

Not a developer, but I can write bash scripts if that's what you're looking for. I don't mind helping you out(for free), but one big caveat is that I have only setup dnscrypt-proxy 2. No idea about the others.

What do I get something out of this, why no fee?
I get to learn those things you've mentioned. (I find the challenge fun.)
