server_config/primaryServer

Primary Server

The "primary" server denotes the server where the majority of the work will be done. This should ideally be the highest-spec'ed machine in the setup.

Packages

*: "POSIX Compliance" is a standard for most shell programs, like bash and sh, which allow scripts to run largely regardless of which shell is installed. Some scripts and copy-paste commands expect POSIX compliance, so if/when scripts don't work in fish, bash is used instead.
