I've been curious about the role of coding in DevOps. Specifically, how much coding do DevOps engineers typically do? I've been out of coding for about two years now, so I'm wondering what steps I can take to learn and get back into it if it's a significant part of the job.

The amount of coding in DevOps really varies. It depends on the organization and what aspects of DevOps you're focusing on. For example, you might be managing infrastructure as code, creating CI/CD pipelines, or handling various tech tools. Essentially, your role can differ greatly, so it's tough to say an exact amount of coding required for all DevOps positions.
That makes sense! So, does that mean it's more about the tools you use rather than writing a ton of code?
