Let me be honest , i am not a developer and neither is my aspiration to become one. But luckily these days writing code and policies with Yaml and Python makes life easy. Even non developers like me get excited to work on automation. And thank god for devops ! I started my devops journey few years ago when we started to automate in my previous organization. I was not thrilled as i have a mindset of being non developer. But, a push to learn things (for the better) put me on path to learn python, puppet, mcollective, ansible and Atom! And being an IT manager it was amazing to see how much time these tools eventually saved in repetitive work. I did act as scrummaster for one of the projects!
Over a weekends many years ago, i put a to do list to learn these. And coming from a perspective of zero on devops, these helped me scale up to an extent.
1. Devops Foundation by Ernest Mueller
2. Learning Python by Joe Marini for quick intro to Python.
3.Python essential training by Bill Weinman
4. Ansible essential training by Robert Starmer
5. GIT essential training by Kevin Skoglund
Infact these days if you look for resources , things are available for free online. There is content in youtube for everything and descriptive blogs. I chanced upon a list of these in my old to do list board. These are certainly boring when you start them, let me be honest. But when you start getting the context , these are really useful from learning and automating prespective.
