At my job i need to install *buntu along with some packages, and do some system configurations everyday. I actually don't mind doing it but can't help this feeling of "If you do it every day you should probably came up with a solution to make it faster" so i thought about writing a simple bash script that installs everything I need, which would be helpful, but wont take care of the config part (I could write a script for that too, but i'm still not sure how to do it) so i thought about making my own distro with everything i need so i just install it and i wouldn't have to do anything else. What do you guys think is the right way to go about this? making my own distro or making a script that installs the stuff i need? Thank you!

Why do you need to install an entire operating system and programs every day? It seems like there would be a better solution just to this alone. – Esther Apr 13 '22 at 13:31
