I wanted to schedule Ansible Playbooks, but for my use case AWX and similar solutions felt too heavy.  
So I created Playbook Scheduler, a lightweight open-source scheduler focused solely on running Ansible Playbooks on a schedule.

Main features:

- Easy installation
- Lightweight
- Web interface
- No AWX required
