Ansible Role: Kiosk

===================

This Ansible role sets up a kiosk using the Chromium web browser on an Ubuntu server. It uses a minimal setup with X and Openbox. The role creates two systemd services: one to start the X environment (using startx), and another to run Chromium. If Chromium is closed, it will automatically restart. Both services will run when the system starts up. This setup is designed for touch screen use.

Requirements

• A clean installation of Ubuntu Server (works with versions 16.04, 17.04, 18.04)
