It now depends on Pydantic 2 and no longer supports Pydantic 1, uses the `ini` language for INI examples for better syntax highlighting, and allows to configure HTTP(S) proxies with environment variables. It also has some improvements for the official Ansible docsites. ### Ansible Community Package [↗](https://github.com/ansible-collections) The `Ansible` package includes `ansible-core` and is a batteries-included package that provides a curated set of Ansible collections.
