I used SaltStack to manage robot OSes in the past, at the urging of my boss. It was super powerful, but it felt a little too powerful, and a little too magical.
When you dive deep into the documentation, how every action is mapped to specific OS is detailed nicely.
For example, package management actions map to specialized packages per OS, and for that specific package, documentation gives how the specific package calls the binaries or use the libraries. After a certain point you start to build call trees and see everything in your mind before pressing enter.
